This edition of Engage! features pieces on Collaborative Governance, placed-based community work and building social connection as we begin to think about life in a post-pandemic world.
Community change leaders spend numerous hours at collaborative planning tables seeking to create more impactful solutions for their neighbourhoods, communities, or networks. And yet, the practice of collaborative governance remains challenging.
Collaborative governance is a formal or informal process where partners representing different interests make decisions together, share resources and strategically align to solve problems.
In any place-based approach, organizations will encounter unforeseen obstacles, often in the form of policy or lack of funding. Learn about the place-based work in Edmonton as well as the reflections on the challenges and ingredients of success to rebuild the vibrant McCauley neighbourhood.
We are seeing municipalities, organizations and groups looking for the right way to move into the recovery phase of the pandemic. Since these are unprecedented times there are no templates or formulas. So how we can work through a recovery plan that will make community essential?
This three-part virtual workshop is designed specifically to build the capacity of Collective Impact backbone staff and leaders. It provides participants with a solid understanding of the theory and practice of Collective Impact, as well as the necessary tools and resources to launch and lead a successful Collective Impact effort.
