Published KPIs. Independent evaluation. Zero spin.
Impact at LURI is not a narrative — it's a number. We commit to targets before programmes launch, measure independently, and publish everything.

Real people. Real outcomes.
First-hand accounts from beneficiaries across the Upper West Region — in their own words.
I now run a small vegetable business and can support my siblings in school. LURI gave me more than skills — it gave me a future.

Our community has better hygiene practices and fewer preventable illnesses. I am now a certified community health volunteer.

The scholarship gave me the chance to stay in school and study engineering. I want to come back and build things for my community.

A rigorous learning cycle — not a checkbox.
Every programme goes through five stages — from pre-launch planning to post-cycle adaptation.
Plan
Define indicators and data-collection methods before each programme cycle.
Monitor
Ongoing participant tracking with field officers in Kulfuo.
Evaluate
Annual independent evaluation against published KPI targets.
Learn
Findings shared openly — what worked, what didn't, and why.
Adapt
Programme design updated for the next cycle based on evidence.
Annual independent evaluation is conducted by an external evaluator. All findings are published in the Annual Report alongside the following year's programme adjustments.
Every finding. Publicly available.
Reports include programme outcomes, financial statements, and adjustments for the following year.
