This platform is open. We warmly welcome practitioners, researchers, and specialists to contribute their knowledge and expertise — financial modelling, legal frameworks, measurement methodologies, implementation know-how, sector research, and more. Every skill added makes the platform more powerful for everyone.
Together, we are building three interconnected foundations for social innovation in Asia:
Skill Consortium — A shared library of agent skills contributed by peers, business partners, and domain experts. Legal, financial, measurement, research, policy, and cultural knowledge — packaged as open, forkable AI agents.
Data Consortium — A growing knowledge base of social work research, impact evidence, sector benchmarks, and community-generated data. Governed collectively; accessible to all.
Impact Consortium — A network of organisations committed to measuring, communicating, and improving their social impact. Shared frameworks, shared metrics, shared accountability.
If you have expertise in finance, law, measurement, research, implementation, or community practice — your knowledge belongs here. Reach out to contribute a skill, share a dataset, or join the consortium. Contact: info@impactdata.cc
IDCC AI is a multi-agent research platform for social innovation. Six AI specialists — each modelled on a real IDCC co-founder or team member — collaborate to answer research questions, design Theory of Change, calculate SROI, build ESG reports, and synthesise academic evidence across 86,000+ social work records.
Technical Empowerment — AI removes the barrier between a practitioner and world-class analytical capability. Any community worker, NGO, or social entrepreneur can now access SROI calculation, ESG frameworks, and academic literature review through natural language — no specialist required.
Impact Empowerment — When more actors can measure and communicate their social impact credibly, the whole ecosystem improves. More NGOs access SIE Fund and social impact bonds. More enterprises file credible ESG reports. More communities articulate the value they create.
The current platform demonstrates that skills and knowledge can flow freely across an AI agent network. The six agents are modelled on real IDCC team members — because the vision is that real practitioners can contribute their expertise to the platform. When a new specialist joins — legal expert, financial modeller, policy analyst — they contribute a skill, and Cici routes users to it automatically.
Call for Participation — We welcome peers, business partners, and domain specialists to contribute their skills and RAG knowledge. Financial modelling, legal frameworks, measurement methodologies, sector research, community practice. Every skill added makes the platform more powerful for everyone in Asia's social innovation ecosystem.
