Date: Tuesday, November 10th

This webinar will explore concrete ways to apply best practices in impact measurement to the unique characteristics of endowment portfolios.

In an interactive session, participants will hear an overview of the Impact Management Project and get an in-depth look from the Global Endowment Management (GEM) team at ways to apply the Impact Management Project's tools to investments. Then the group will break out into smaller discussions on specific applications of impact management, choosing between three themes:

• Incorporating diversity, racial, and social equity in impact measurement and management
• Evaluating complex public companies
• Applying the Impact Management Project to private funds

There will be ample time for Q&A and reflections in this practical, action-oriented webinar.
