Webinar: Building effective cross-sector collaborations on a foundation of IAP2 core values

Presented by: Anne Harding, Suncor Energy

Drawing on the recent research of Aboriginal Relations practitioner and IAP2 Canada board member Anne Harding, this webinar explores the how cross-sector partnerships have emerged as a way to engage communities. 

In the last decade, partnerships between groups from different economic sectors – be they corporate-community, government-nonprofit, or community-nonprofit initiatives – have increasingly been touted as an effective tool for bringing together different perspectives and strengths to solve complex social issues and build sustainable trust-based relationships. 

Through this webinar, Anne will review what the academic community has to say about the ups and downs of cross-sector partnerships, and will give an overview of her research on a specific kind of partnership: Aboriginal-corporate collaborative initiatives. 

The results of her research – key criteria for success in Aboriginal-corporate collaborations – will be presented using the IAP2 Core Values as a framework to show how IAP2 principles can be used to support many different types of community engagement (even those where the goal may be to build a relationship rather than make a decision!).
