Centering Equity in Collective Impact

2021 was a milestone year for those working in collective impact-10 years ago, the article “Collective Impact,” was published in the Stanford Social Innovation Review. This article helped codify practices from successful collaborations that were working toward long-term population and system-level change.
In the decade since this publication, a lot has happened in the collective impact field, and collaboratives around the world have grown and evolved their practice to better support their communities’ needs.
Join us as we mark this milestone in a virtual coffee discussion that explores lessons learned over this decade. We share an updated definition of collective impact and a set of key strategies to help collective impact efforts center equity in their work. The discussion features a subset of the co-authors of the recent article Centering Equity in Collective that was featured in the Winter 2022 issue of the Stanford Social Innovation Review.
