Feedback Management

Feedback helps us understand what matters most to the people we serve. By systematically collecting and analysing input from diverse community groups we can identify needs, gaps in the response and opportunities for improvements. It also highlights what communities are already doing themselves, allowing us to build on local strengths rather than duplicate efforts. Done well, feedback management increases our accountability and impact, helping teams at all levels make informed decisions that reflect the voices and needs of those affected.
