This session will bring together some of the most experienced leaders in the field to ask: how can we move beyond pilots and experimentation to harness the potential of outcomes-based funding for social and environmental change at scale? We will anchor the discussion in three core questions:
- What can we learn from the success but also failure to date in using outcomes-based approaches as a catalytic enabler of a broader transformation of systems to be re-oriented towards delivering impact?
- What are the key structural barriers that prevent mainstream adoption of outcomes-based programmes by the public sector and is a ‘blueprint to scale’ possible?
- Do we need to improve what we deliver, how, and who we build outcome-focused partnerships with, or should we simply adjust our expectations on the pace of change?
