Collective Impact for NGOs and iwi/Māori organisations.

“If you want to deal with the issue of poverty..you can’t just deal with housing, you can’t just deal with the education system. You really have to deal with the joined up nature of the problems.” (Liz Weaver, Tamarack Institute).

This Collective Impact collection gathers resources to assist groups of organisations from different sectors to work together to solve complex social problems through a common agenda, shared impact measures and systematic alignment of efforts.
