A charitable organization in the non-profit sector
Project Background and Key Objectives
Youth initiatives in the Kingdom are spread across multiple government and non-profit entities. However, the absence of a unified database has limited long-term planning and made it difficult to link programs to national youth objectives. In response, a national project was launched to transform scattered data into a structured database that supports analysis and policymaking.
The Challenge:
- Lack of a comprehensive database for youth initiatives.
- Absence of unified evaluation and measurement tools to assess impact and gaps.
- Difficulty linking initiatives to national youth objectives.
- The need for accurate classification by age group, region, and type of initiative.
Methodology Applied
The Hawaz team implemented the project through integrated steps:
- Designing a research methodology that included surveys, interviews, and workshops.
- Mapping and analyzing more than 300 youth initiatives (ages 12–35).
- Engaging 59 government and non-profit entities.
- Covering 65 cities across different regions of the Kingdom.
- Developing an interactive dashboard for the geographic and thematic distribution of initiatives.
- Preparing evaluation tools to measure added value and potential impact.
Project Impact
- A reliable national database comprising 300+ youth initiatives.
- Classification of initiatives by age, sector, and region.
- Development of measurement indicators and benchmarking across initiatives and entities.
- Strategic recommendations supporting the formulation of more targeted youth policies.
- Enabling decision-makers to rely on evidence-based analysis instead of estimates.
