Module 10 – Policy, Advocacy, and Systems Change
IN THIS LESSON
Many social challenges are too complex for any one organisation or sector to address alone. Multi-stakeholder collaboration brings together different actors — such as businesses, nonprofits, governments, research institutions, and communities — to combine their expertise, resources, and networks.
In this lesson, you'll explore both the opportunities and challenges of working across sectors. You'll consider how different incentives, expectations, and priorities can shape collaboration, and why strong communication and facilitation skills are essential for bringing diverse stakeholders together around shared goals.
As you watch, consider:
Which different stakeholders would need to be involved in addressing the challenge you are working on?
What different priorities or incentives might they bring to the table?
How could you help create enough common ground for these stakeholders to work together effectively?
