The Collective Impact Forum invites you to join us on April 27-29, 2021 for the 2021 Collective Impact Action Summit.
Spanning three days and featuring over 25 online sessions — including keynotes, tool sessions, case studies, and short talks — the 2021 Collective Impact Action Summit will share lessons learned from across the social change field, including the role of collective impact initiatives in advancing equitable systems change, centering anti-racist work, contributing to COVID-19 response and rebuilding, and other pressing challenges of our time.

Perspectives from Previous Convening Attendees.
What did attendees share after the 2020 Virtual Convening?
-
“It powerfully presented diverse perspectives virtually and incorporated equity, cross-sector collaboration, and systems thinking in meaningful ways.”
-
“It was SOOOOO inspiring to see so many others committed to social justice, and the Convening was presented in the best possible way given the limitations of remote-ness. It was entertaining; it spoke to my heart. Boosted my determination to keep doing the work.”
- “One leaves feeling inspired with tangible tools ready to get back home and get to work.”
