Facilitating Catalytic Collaborations – Part 2
Manage episode 444129422 series 3599928
In part two, our third story is about The Social Employment Fund based in South Africa. This government initiative creates part-time jobs that build people’s skills while benefiting communities. An essential part of their successful model is The Social Employment Network, that convenes community partners to promote collaboration, learning, and shared commitment to creating and filling community-based jobs that directly contribute to community welfare. Our guests are Margo Paterson and Sivu Siwisa.
Our last story is about making place-based systems change a reality. We explore with Regen Melbourne what it takes to work across silos to support collaboration. They are a platform working with 200 organizations across sectors to restore a river ecosystem. This is a story about how to engage many people in contributing to a community vision, and how money can flow differently to address social issues and bring big visions into reality.
Our guests are Kaj Löfgren, CEO of Regen Melbourne, and Ivanna Gazibara from the TransCap Initiative, a nonprofit focused on utilizing sustainable finance as a key lever for systems change so that money can become a transformative force in society.
