Tamarack's Engage! Guides & workshops on youth services, systemic racism in Montréal, & systems change.
This guide has been designed to broaden our collective thinking about the factors that contribute to sustainable, resilient, and impactful collaboration.
To help equip you in your own leadership journey, Co-CEO Liz Weaver is launching the Collaborative Leadership & Governance series.
Join us for this new, two-part virtual workshop designed to help you design, implement, and renew a successful Collective Impact Initiative. This workshop will profile lessons from practitioners about how to achieve high-impact results and will focus specifically on the importance of bringing a systems lens to Collective Impact to explicitly incorporate both programmatic AND systems-change strategies into Collective Impact implementation plans.
This two-part virtual workshop is ideal for anyone interested in deepening their knowledge about effectively designing, implementing, or renewing a Collective Impact initiative.
We are thrilled to announce the launch of EngageFest! Tamarack’s first-ever organization-wide learning event. Bringing together thought leaders, learners, and Tamarack members from across our global network for two days of capacity building, knowledge sharing, and inspiration to explore the theme: The Power of Place.
This event is a forum to come together with inspirational leaders and on-the-ground community members from around the world to share ideas, successes, fail-forward opportunities, and take this learning home and apply it to the community change work you're passionate about. Discover and be inspired by how other groups are tackling complex issues like equity, mental health, lack of affordability, the climate crisis, reconciliation, and belonging and inclusion.
Tamarack’s Learning Centre exists to empower community changemakers to achieve greater impact. We draw upon our 15 years of experience leading community change and advancing practice to support municipalities, funders, non-profits, and community leaders through on-demand coaching and consulting, in-person and digital training, and publications that guide change efforts.
We support our learning network in developing five interconnected ideas that lead to community change:
In Vibrant Communities we support cities and local leaders to develop and implement large-scale change initiatives through these learning networks:
Communities Building Youth Futures is a five-year strategy to work with up to 13 communities to develop system-wide solutions for youth as they build and act upon plans for their future.
Community Climate Transitions is building a network of communities that are committed to tackling climate change through a multi-solving approach that advances social, environmental and economic goals simultaneously.
The Latest from Community Climate Transitions:
Tamarack is a connected force for community change.
In the spirit of respect, reciprocity, and truth we honour and acknowledge that our work occurs across Turtle Island (North America), which has been home since time immemorial to the ancestors of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Peoples.
