Unexpected Pairings for Transformative Change

GREAT ROOM

Open and transparent dialogue between people of different backgrounds, perspectives, politics, and philosophies is the only way that effective and diverse coalitions can emerge to change the world. By enabling bold and unconventional partnerships across business, government, media, nonprofits, and activist communities, new ideas and initiatives can inspire, amplify, and scale impact.
What lessons can be learned from successful collaborations between social activists and the private sector? How can philanthropic leaders better bridge the divide between grassroots organizations and corporate interests? How can successful new partnerships emerge between seemingly disparate institutions?
In this conversation about the power of unexpected pairings, we will explore how to inspire authentic strategies and tactical and strategic responses to generate transformative change.
