Description

The purpose of the Harvesting the Wisdom of Coalition project is to contribute to what we know about developing and sustaining effective coalitions. This report integrates the information gathered in the literature review (Harvesting the Wisdom of Coalitions: Literature Review) with primary research undertaken with members of coalitions across Alberta. Community coalitions have formed for a wide variety of purposes in Alberta and have involved many people and organizations. The practical experience gained in forming and sustaining coalitions can benefit new, as well as, existing coalitions. This report presents the findings of the study, whose goal was to harvest and share the wisdom of coalitions across Alberta.
