Collaborating for Social Change: Collaborative Infrastructure

Following the launch of our Guide to Collaboration, we invite you to join us for a series of lunchtime conversations exploring the six foundations of effective collaboration.

In April 2023, we published our Guide to Collaboration — a short summary of what we've learned about how to create sustained, effective collaborations for social change. Core to the Guide are the 'six foundations for effective collaboration', which we have been exploring in more detail in this series of follow-up conversations.

In the next event in our Foundations of Collaboration series, we are going to dive deeper into the role of collaborative infrastructure as an enabler of effective collaboration. Collaborative infrastructure makes it easier to work across boundaries and helps align the organisational incentives of those collaborating, including things like shared data, integrated or aligned funding, collective staff and organisational development to enable new ways of working, and shared accountability and performance management approaches. 

We will be joined by Pye Nyunt, CEO of Impera Analytics who will share about the impact of data that can be shared, pooled, or used to support collaborative action by partnerships and what he has learned from his work.

Following this we will hear from Sarah Billiald who will share her experience of developing collaborative staff and organisational development across a system to enable new ways of working and collaborative governance through the East Surrey health and care partnership.

This is an open lunchtime event for all those interested in working better together across systems. We'll be inviting ideas and insight from all so please do join us and share your experiences.
