Goal of Community Collaboration: The goal of collaborations is to bring individuals, agencies, organizations and community members themselves together in an atmosphere of support to systematically solve existing and emerging problems that could not easily be solved by one group alone.
What is collaboration in a community?
Community-based collaboration requires a commitment to share decisionmaking and the allocation of human, physical, and financial resources. When communities do not develop a pattern of collaboration, they diminish community development potential.
How does collaboration build community?
Building collaborative communities means finding new and better ways to work together. We need to create spaces where people can find each other, share ideas, and discover common ground. We need settings where people can receive support and be acknowledged as public actors.
Why is collaborative important?
Why is collaboration important? Collaboration improves the way your team works together and problem solves. This leads to more innovation, efficient processes, increased success, and improved communication. Through listening to and learning from team members, you can help each other reach your goals.
