Founded in 2004, Keystone Accountability is a not-for-profit organization with locations in United Kingdom, South Africa, United States. Keystone's mission strives to improve the effectiveness of social purpose organizations. Using benchmarking surveys,[1] feedback[2] and analysis, Keystone consults on NGOs, international development agencies, and major foundations to plan, measure and report social change.[3][4] In 2009, Keystone blended participatory evaluation and customer satisfaction to create a new methodology referred to as Constituent Voice.[5]
