Key Impact is an independent consulting firm specializing in public and nonprofit sector development. Founded by Dr. Yuval Ofek, an expert in network evaluation, and Ms. Krisztina Varga, a specialist in capacity development and data analytics, Key Impact combines rigorous interdisciplinary theory with extensive field-based experience.
Key Impact designs and implements comprehensive monitoring, evaluation, accountability and learning systems (MEAL), and leads high-quality social development research. Key Impact works across a wide range of thematic areas, social inclusion, human development, humanitarian action and peacebuilding.
Through methodologically robust and context-sensitive evaluation approaches, Key Impact enables partners to distinguish between intended and actual results, identify system weaknesses and shortcomings, and strengthen effective and efficient interventions. In doing so, we help organizations move beyond activity-driven implementation toward measurable, evidence-based social impact.
