Please join the NOW Network next week for the second installment of our 2022 NOW Webinar Series! This year's three-part series will lift up NOW network leaders and others who are applying the levers of change outlined in the NOW Playbook in their communities. These levers are critical to ensure the equitable transformation and alignment of community systems, including strategies to center racial equity and healing; implement shared governance and equitable decision making; engage communities authentically and with dignity; develop and disseminate data stories, and plan for sustainability. Hope to see you there! WEBINAR: Cooperatives as a Practice of Community Leadership Thursday, August 25, 2022 1-2pm Eastern Register at https://bit.ly/now-webinar-august-2022 Through the NOW Cooperative Design Lab Series in Spring 2021, NOW partnered with 15 community champions from across the country to embark on a journey of reimagining funding structures to center, honor, and uphold the values of local communities and coalitions. Through the application of human-centered design, participants worked together to identify barriers of traditional and current funding structures and explore alternative solutions. Together, they developed a reflection guide that encourages funders and their potential partners to think intentionally about the goals and outcomes of their relationship, focused on a set of key Guiding Principles and Practices that build on elements of successful cooperative and collaborative structures. During this conversation you’ll hear from a member of the design group that worked on the reflection guide, as well as learn more about how key practices of cooperative structures can foster and promote sustainable community leadership. Featured speakers: Stephanie Waters, Child Development Resources, University of Alabama Darnell Adams, Firebrand Cooperative Moderator: Ronda Alexander, Director of National Partnerships, Vital Village Networks Visit the NOW Innovation Forum today at: https://www.networksofopportunity.org/ ​NOTA: Hay una línea en español disponible para los participantes que deseen escuchar interpretación en vivo durante el seminario web. Los cooperativos como una práctica de liderazgo comunitario Jueves, el 25 de agosto de 2022 1-2pm EST Regístrese: https://bit.ly/now-webinar-august-2022 A través de la serie de laboratorios de diseño cooperativo NOW en la primavera de 2021, NOW se asoció con 15 campeones comunitarios de todo el país para embarcarse en un viaje de reinvención de las estructuras de financiación para centrar, honrar y defender los valores de las comunidades y coaliciones locales. A través de la aplicación del diseño centrado en el ser humano, los participantes trabajaron juntos para identificar las barreras de las estructuras de financiación tradicionales y actuales y explorar soluciones alternativas. Juntos, desarrollaron una guía de reflexión que alienta a los financiadores y sus socios potenciales a pensar intencionalmente sobre las metas y los resultados de su relación, enfocada en un conjunto de Principios y Prácticas claves que se basan en elementos de estructuras cooperativas y colaborativas exitosas. Durante esta conversación escuchará a un miembro del grupo de diseño que trabajó en la guía de reflexión, y también aprenderá más sobre cómo las prácticas de estructuras cooperativas pueden fomentar y promover el liderazgo comunitario sostenible.
