    Working at the Intersection of Different Systems with Civic Infrastructure

    Part of the work in transforming systems is understanding how different social systems intersect: education, housing, health, criminal justice, etc. On the flip side, there is a large cross section of social impact organizations who have different but overlapping approaches. In this episode, we’ll talk about the role civic infrastructure plays in building collaborative relationships where organizations can work toward a common vision. And, we’ll discuss how this approach can transcend international borders to get results.  Featured guest is Danya Pastuszek, Co-CEO of Tamarack Institute for Community Engagement.
