“What does it take to truly collaborate? How do you take your collaboration to the next level?” asks The Collaboration Toolkit. Through discussion, checklists, and a curated collection of links to tools, templates, and case studies, the toolkit tackles these and other questions such as:

  • Is collaboration is right for your organization?
  • What are the different types of collaboration?
  • How does your collaboration seek joint funding?
  • How does your collaboration establish a joint plan of work?
