One of the most exciting projects to come out of the Collaborative in 2020 was the Interdependence Toolkit. Why - you ask? It is a tangible, co-created, hopeful, future-forward & action-oriented example of: Collaborative Commitments We share common purposes. We learn from and align with individuals who are most affected. We advocate for ethical community-based learning, rejecting colonialism. We seek and support participation from individuals who are most affected. We clarify our theories of change. We advocate for responsible story-sharing and ethical representation. We are intentional & transparent. We co-create just, inclusive and sustainable communities. In many ways it highlights what we do well when we work in community, with shared purpose and while recognizing and giving voice to the diversity of expertise, backgrounds, identities and experiences of our members and friends.
Do you still have questions about the Toolkit and how to get more involved? Good news! We welcome your questions and your involvement.
