Building Digital Infrastructure for Impact Bonds (Outcome-Based Contracts) for Community Sport and Cultural Organisations

社区体育组织和其他文化组织(如图书馆、博物馆和美术馆)为我们的社区创造巨大的社会价值(http://shura.shu.ac.uk/9596/1/review-social-impacts-culture-sport.pdf).在英国，这些组织中的很大一部分依赖公共资金和/或慈善收入来实现财务可持续性，在经历了新冠肺炎经济危机和当前的经济衰退之后，这个项目的目标是建立数字基础设施，使这些组织能够获得社会影响债券(https://golab.bsg.ox.ac.uk/the-basics/impact-bonds/)等社会融资解决方案-通过利用有关他们在社区产生的社会影响结果的数据来帮助他们获得更高水平的资金。已经建立了数字技术，用于在我们的SportFin平台(https://sportfin.io)，)上产生关于社区体育组织产生的社会影响的实时数据我们的目标是利用这笔赠款资金建立数字基础设施，使Impact债券生命周期自动化，以便社区体育和其他文化组织可以访问Impact债券。

Community sport organisations and other cultural organisations (like libraries, museums and art galleries) generate tremendous social value for our communities (http://shura.shu.ac.uk/9596/1/review-social-impacts-culture-sport.pdf). A major proportion of these organisations in the UK rely on public funding and/or charity income for their financial sustainability, and following the COVID-19 economic crisis and the current recession, are struggling to access funding to maintain their financial health.The aim of this project is to build the digital infrastructure that will make social financing solutions like social impact bonds (https://golab.bsg.ox.ac.uk/the-basics/impact-bonds/) accessible to these organisations - helping them access greater levels of funding by harnessing data about the social impact outcomes they are generating in communities.Having already built the digital technology for producing real-time data about social impact being generated by community sport organisations on our SportFin platform (https://sportfin.io), we aim to use this grant funding to build the digital infrastructure for automating the impact bond lifecycle, so impact bonds can be accessible for community sport and other cultural organisations.
