What they’re saying

I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your inspiring presentation in our conference ‘Impact assessment: evidencing and valuing our work’, and the training in the workshop ‘How to demonstrate the impacts of your work’. Your support is indispensible to us in building the social service sector’s capacity in social impact assessment. Once again thank you very much for your contribution, and I look forward to future collaboration. — Anthony Wong, Chief Research Officer, Hong Kong Council of Social Service
