Social Value Ireland - Network Relaunch
In February, Social Value Ireland — an Associate Network of Social Value International — relaunched its network and kicked off its annual event series. The network was originally established by three Irish organisations: The Wheel, Whitebarn Consulting, and Quality Matters.
Whitebarn Consulting was founded by Sandra Velthuis, a Level 3 Social Value Practitioner (Advanced Practitioner). The network is currently coordinated by Philip Isard of Quality Matters, who is also a Level 3 Social Value Practitioner (Advanced Practitioner), accredited trainer, and member of the SVI Report Assurance Panel.
The online relaunch event featured speakers from various sectors who shared their perspectives on “Social Value in Ireland today.” This was followed by breakout sessions exploring the key enablers and barriers facing both practitioners and organisations. The event brought together more than 40 participants from across Ireland.
