This document aims to address the topic of Social Value and its possible measurement strategies. One of the main objectives of this document is to obtain greater knowledge about the different impacts and to support decision-making in social policy; especially in the evaluation and allocation of resources to programs or social investment units, where it is necessary to count on concepts and tools that allow the measurement of social value in its different dimensions. When planning a program it is essential to determine and take into account the effects that it may have on the population. The depth and breadth of Social Value evaluation and the activities designed to adapt the program to social criteria depend on the foreseeable burden, the responsiveness of the services to be offered, the complexity of the program, the available information and the evaluation phase in progress. Special attention should be given to programs that typically have major social impacts. In order to define the framework and possible central aspects of social value of evaluation, it will be necessary to classify and examine the social effects of the planned program according to its impact.
