About the Authors

  • Working across the private and social sector globally, Huber Social holds ‘Wellbeing’ as the measure of success for humanity and works with organisations to measure and create social value. 

    As an independent third party, Huber Social applies a universally applicable Wellbeing standard to determine the social value that an organisation has created and to identify how to maximise it.

    Our Vision is for everyone to have the capability and opportunity to fulfil their potential: collective wellbeing.

    Our Mission is to measure what matters for people’s wellbeing and identify opportunities to maximise it.

    Help us achieve collective wellbeing.

  • As the lead drafters of the Standards Australia "Measuring and valuing social impact — Guidance on approach and methodologies" Handbook SA HB 204:2022 Huber Social has designed this course to walk participants through the best practice principles outlined.

  • We recognise the experience of people impacted as critical intelligence to inform effective, sustainable solutions: subjective wellbeing evaluation.

    Measuring wellbeing is important to ensure all people have the capability and opportunity to fulfil their potential, and together we rise. However, most approaches to measuring wellbeing impose a particular point of view on what matters for wellbeing.

    This fails to serve the people whose needs and aspirations do not align to this dominant point of view, often the people that social initiatives aim to serve.

    Therefore, to ensure measurement reflects the needs and aspirations of the people being impacted, we do not impose a point of view on what matters for wellbeing. Instead, we recognise the experience of people impacted as the sovereign truth, providing critical intelligence to inform effective, sustainable solutions.

    We measure subjective wellbeing to reveal what matters across different contexts based on how people are experiencing their life, and we employ statistics to identify priority needs.

    Through measuring the lived experience of people, our approach makes sure all voices are heard.

  • The Huber Social Ethical Review Board is the first and only nationally registered Human Research Ethics Committee focussed on assessing projects measuring social impact.

    The Huber Social Ethical Review Board (ERB) is a registered Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC) with the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC).

    Our ethical review procedure complies with the Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research 2018 and the National Statement on Ethical Conduct in Human Research 2018.

“It was a really well designed course. Well structured and helpful from start to finish! I loved being able to apply the educational lessons to my organisation and the projects we are working on.”

“I have studied and worked in this sector for a significant time and have never seen these topics covered so well.”
