    Impact stories to shout about!

    Browse our ‘Paths to Impact’ stories where we spotlight journeys that have led to meaningful difference, the people at the heart of that change, and the small but crucial milestones along the way.

What does having an impact mean to us?

Quite simply, it’s about making people's lives better – and making change last.

In Nepal, we’ve helped transform the country’s climate and disaster risk agenda over a decade – supporting policies that direct 80% of international climate finance to local communities. In Ethiopia, we’re working with national and local partners to reach zero-dose children with life-saving vaccines. And in Pakistan, we’re equipping school leaders with the tools to take charge of their budgets.

And these are just some of the 1,500+ projects we have delivered over almost five decades. This is what real impact looks like to us: locally-led, rooted in evidence, and focused on sustainable public policy that delivers lasting, positive change.
