Our impact
Impact is not a slogan.
It is an intentional and measurable part of how opportunities are selected, developed and monitored. We seek to connect investment activity to outcomes that matter for businesses, communities and the environment.

02 Impact measurement
What we report — for every impact claim
We use one standard format for every impact metric and every public impact claim.
01
Indicator
What is being measured? Defined precisely.
02
Baseline
What was the starting position, and when was it measured?
03
Target
What outcome was intended, by what date?
04
Actual result
What has been achieved as at the reporting date?
05
Evidence source
Which records, survey, partner report or independent verification supports it?
06
Attribution / contribution
What can reasonably be attributed to the project or StoneZero's contribution?
07
Limitations
What assumptions, data gaps or estimation methods should readers understand?
Our principle
Never present projections as achieved outcomes.
For each featured project we show baseline, target, actual result, measurement period, data source and limitations.
Recommended status labels
Used only where the status is supported by evidence.
