Sosped Center

Combining relevant data with comparable information 

We help organizations with impact assessment and organizational development.  

Sosped Center has been a pioneer in measuring social value. Sosped Center is owned by Sosped Foundation, one of the biggest social and welfare NGO’s in Finland. Our foundation’s work is based on social pedagogical thinking and it includes working with both vulnerable groups (ex. mental health rehabilitators, problematic gamblers) and complex social phenomena (ex. transformation of work-life, digital addictions, sexual health among immigrant communities).  

 Having a social and wellbeing foundation as an owner helps us to understand, analyze and value complex and hidden social phenomena better. We are used to hearing “it can’t be measured” and “we’ve tried to do it”, but our passion is to create an accurate and reliable evaluation for even the most complicated situations. Reach out to Miikka, our Chief of Evaluation, or read a bit more about our evaluation services here.
