Impact & evidence
Real progress deserves more than a number. It deserves evidence.
Activity
What Goblis or a partner did.
Output
The immediate deliverable or participation result.
Outcome
A meaningful change observed after the activity.
Verified impact
A higher-confidence change supported by appropriate evidence and attribution limits.
From activity to meaningful change
What progress might look like
These examples describe the kind of evidence the programmes seek, not published results or participant counts.
Jikimu — a stronger entrepreneurial pathway
An enquiry becomes a documented fit decision; a consented referral reaches the appropriate specialist; later follow-up distinguishes a completed introduction from actual progress.

A rural need is validated by local actors, suitable institutions agree responsibilities and documented milestones help show what changed and why.

Evidence boundary
Operational activity does not automatically equal impact. Public reporting should state whether information is administrative, participant-reported, partner-reported, independently verified or still awaiting evidence.
See evidence through places and stories
Approved programme videos help explain the work; reviewed county or subcounty-level locations help explain reach. Neither constitutes verified outcome evidence on its own.
