emphasis on financial support

Less focus on policy change, though working with legislators is an approach to compensate for this

The theory is helpful for guiding community health research and practice by creating large scale social change.

An enhancement in collective impact would be an emphasis on funding and support enabling one entity to provide the administrative backbone for moving groups forward.

# data[].attributes.body
Collective Impact does not provide more detail on ways to build/improve sustainability of the backbone/support organizations.

# data[].attributes.body
The main core tenets of collective impact are a shared agenda, shared measurement systems, mutually reinforcing activities, continuous communication, and a central infrastructure.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that would benefit the theory is to state up front the intended outcomes and objectives. Because programs often experience a mismatch in program objectives, beneficiaries served, and intended outcomes.

# data[].attributes.body
One of the benefits of the collective impact model is the social benefit. Entering into an agreement with a well-known business, government program, etc. can give an organization a credibility boost in the eyes of the general public, donors/investors, and even the beneficiaries you seek to positively impact.

# data[].attributes.body
One of the limitations is that the collective impact model does not address the essential requirement for meaningfully engaging those in the community most affected by the issues.

# data[].attributes.body
Collective impact initiatives typically have five conditions that together produce alignment and lead to powerful results:
1. a common agenda
2. shared measurement systems
3. mutually reinforcing activities
4. continuous communication, and
5. backbone support organizations

While improving collaborative efforts that seek to increase community capacity, health and social outcomes, an important modification that could enhance the theory is advocacy and policy change.

# data[].attributes.body
CI model is not explicitly focused on policy change and advocacy.

# data[].attributes.body
There is coordination and lesson learned are shared among the stakeholders, thereby eliminating duplication of effort, enhancing impact, and issues are identified and solved from different perspectives.

This theory encourages collaboration helps to align partners (government, NGO, philanthropic and private sector) and engage the community members actively, therefore, it addresses a complex social problem.

# data[].attributes.body

Phase 3:  Sustaining action and impact

Core tenets
