Top 5 Podcast Episodes of the Year

,

As we close out the year, we want to share our gratitude with you—our community members—for your continued support and engagement of the Forum’s programs and resources.

Supporting the long-term work of collective impact and helping you reach your goals is part of our North Star, and we feel deep gratitude for every step of the journey with you.

We also appreciate the many of you listening to our ongoing Collective Impact Forum podcast, where we share stories, experiences, and resources from across the collective impact field. Since its launch in 2020, we have reached almost 50,000 downloads, and can’t wait to share more episodes and stories of impact with you next year.

As a look back from this year, please find below the top 5 episodes that community members listened to the most. There’s a bounty of experiences shared within, and we were honored for the chance to talk with folk and learn more about their work.

We look forward to learning more with You in 2023!

Gratefully yours,

The Collective Impact Forum team
