The goal of CAFIID’s Impact Measurement and Management Community of Practice (IMM CoP) is to support CAFIID members in deepening their knowledge of and expertise in IMM. CAFIID is a member driven organization aiming to act as a catalyst to mobilize more impact investment capital toward emerging and frontier markets and to provide its members with opportunities to learn, share and collaborate.

The IMM CoP will provide a dedicated forum for sharing tools, approaches, and case studies of IMM in Canada and beyond. The IMM CoP will provide opportunities for CAFIID members to:

• exchange knowledge on best practices and trending IMM topics.

• share related learnings and resources.

• provide peer support and advice on specific IMM cases and questions faced by members.

• demonstrate leadership in the impact investment ecosystem by contributing to national and global IMM standardization and practice.

The IMM CoP will be practical, inclusive, and participatory in nature. Activities will take place monthly, alternating between informative sessions and peer support sessions to be confirmed via a survey of CAFIID members. The activities will include:

• Informative and knowledge-sharing sessions and the development of a resource repository which will address IMM topics of interest, allowing members to share their IMM approaches, tools and best practices. This will also include webinars with non-members.

• Peer support sessions provide a space for members to bring forward case studies or challenges they may be facing for an exchange of practical advice and considerations. The CoP will also be a space to brainstorm ideas about innovative IMM structures and foster new avenues for collaboration between CAFIID members.
