MAZE Impact: 4 years of Social Impact Bonds

Portugal has been leading the way for social innovation worldwide and is now the third country in the world with more Social Impact Bonds. Learn more about this innovative tool that aligns incentives of private investors, social organizations, and public sector entities.

After four years of managing Social Impact Bonds (SIBs) in Portugal, MAZE reflects on the impact created by these innovative financing instruments for social innovation.

MAZE supported and managed three different SIBs: "Projeto Família", preventing children and youth at risk from unnecessary institutionalization; "Faz-Te Forward" and "Bootcamps Academia de Código", both tackling unemployment through capacity-building programmes.

You can read and download the closing reports of these three SIBs here.
