Organizations involved in serving youth in Wood Buffalo participated in a social change process to develop a collective impact[1] strategy to address youth-related issues in Wood Buffalo. This collective impact strategy built on the work of Y-Connect, Social Prosperity Wood Buffalo, ConvergenceYMM, Nexus North, the Regional Municipal of Wood Buffalo, as well as the research of John Kania, Mark Kramer, and Frances Westley.
Using social innovation tools and strategies, this five-part series explored the five conditions of collective impact, including the development of a common agenda, shared measurement, mutually reinforcing activities, continuous communication, and backbone support to address youth-related issues in Wood Buffalo.
Reports from the five workshops:
- Wednesday, September 18th – Report #1
- Thursday, November 7th – Report #2
- Monday, February 10th – Report #3
- Tuesday, April 22nd – Report #4
- Wednesday, June 4th – Report #5
