In these recordings, Sharon Shea introduces the RBA™ methodology and explains how it can be used to show the impact of your work.
RBA™ is a practical tool, popular with Government, that can be used to help to demonstrate how your vision, mission and strategic priorities are linked to people’s wellbeing. It helps your organisation to demonstrate results.

More about RBA™
RBA™ is more than a research and evaluation model – it is a common sense process that will help your organisation to meet its vision, mission and strategic priorities linked to people wellbeing.
Results Based Accountability (RBA) helps you to achieve results for communities, whānau and clients. RBA also helps you assess how a programme or service is performing and where you might make changes to achieve the desired results. RBA tracks impact at both ‘performance’ (how well something was delivered) and ‘population’ levels (the ‘real world’ effects).
The RBA collection on the What Works website
The RBA collection gathers together a collection of tools and resources , for NGO’s iwi and Maori organisations who are thinking of using RBA. It unpacks some of the pro’s and con’s of RBA to help you decide if RBA is the right tool for you. More here
