Collaborative Commitments
CoSA Paper No.4
Written by Prof. David Grayson, Doughty Centre for Corporate Responsibility on behalf of CoSA
This paper outlines the concept of ‘collaborative commitments’ which has been developed by the members of the Council on Social Action.This is seen as something which builds on previous generations of public-private-community partnerships; but is more substantial. Whereas partnerships might withstand the withdrawal of an individual partner, collaborative commitments only work because of the distinctive contributions of each organisation involved.
