COLLECTIVE IMPACT MODEL
The Collective Impact Model is a framework for coordinating collaborative efforts & refers to the commitment of a group of people from different sectors to a common agenda for solving a specific large-scale social problem.
Aspen Art Museum has served as the backbone organization for the project, and Dolly Hayde and Justin Meyer of COSI derived our shared measurement systems. RAC organizations’ common agenda has been to learn together and explore how the network could expand capacity among project partners to serve their communities. Our online meetings and annual summits have served to keep us in regular communication, and our collaborative programming and professional development sessions have offered mutually reinforcing activities (see “Promising Examples” beginning on page 16). The Collective Impact model has been revisited since the inception of this project, and more details can be found on page 31 of this guide. As we continue to collaborate beyond the project timeline, the RAC network will incorporate aspects of the new model into our leadership structure.
The model is defined by 5 conditions:
1
- A common agenda
2
- Shared measurement systems
3
- Mutually reinforcing activities
4
