Collective Impact

Large-scale social change requires broad cross-sector coordination, yet the social sector remains focused on the isolated intervention of individual organizations. The Collective Impact framework identifies 5 conditions that lead to powerful results:
1. Common agenda/shared vision
2. Shared Measurement System/metrics of success
3. Mutually reinforcing activities and coordination
4. Continuous communication
5. Backbone support/structured management processes.
