Impact

Our Impact

Activity is not achievement. This page shows what Stepin has done, how we measure whether it worked, and where our data is still being built.

Impact dashboard

What we have done so far.

These figures are drawn directly from Stepin’s verified activity records. Where a record does not exist, the figure is not estimated. It is shown as still being established. We would rather publish an honest gap than a flattering guess.

Monitoring & evaluation

How Stepin measures whether any of this worked.

Most organisations report activity: sessions held, people reached, photographs taken. Far fewer report outcomes. This is the chain Stepin measures along, and we publish at every link.

Inputs What goes in: funding, staff time, volunteer hours, materials, partner contributions.
Activities What we do: education sessions, campaigns, champion training, referrals, navigation and support contacts.
Outputs What that produced: women reached, communities reached, sessions delivered, champions trained, materials distributed.
Outcomes What changed for people: knowledge gained, screening attended, referrals completed, treatment continued.
Impact What changed in the end: stage at presentation over time, community attitudes, health-system engagement.
Indicators we report against
  • Women reached · people reached · communities reached
  • Education sessions delivered
  • Campaign reach across radio and digital channels
  • Community Champions trained and active
  • Referrals facilitated, and referrals completed
  • Patient navigation contacts
  • Beneficiary feedback, including negative feedback
  • Programme outcomes against stated objectives
  • Partnerships active, and funding secured
Three commitments about our reporting
  • We publish the method, not just the number. How a figure was counted matters as much as the figure.
  • We publish what did not work. An organisation that only reports success is not reporting.
  • We report back to communities. The people who took part see the results, not only the funders.

Stepin’s first full annual impact report is scheduled for December 2027, covering the Pilot & Prove year.
