As this piece in Techsoup's NetSquared blog shares, events that actively encourage, facilitate, and support the development and ongoing health of collabortions among both kindred and disparate groups are springing up, in places like British Columbia, Paris, and our Radical Collaboration event in San Franicsco coming up next week.

...I wonder if there may be a unifying force striving through all of these gatherings - as if around the globe we are seeing that a renewed sense of collaboration is a major key to addressing our world's challenges. Take a look at the events and see for yourself!

Radical Collaboration is itself a collaboration between GenGreen, 3rdWhale and Creative Citizen – happening August 20, 2009 from 6-10pm in San Francisco.

“The goal of this event is to inspire partnerships, resource sharing and cooperation. By bringing together the leaders in the environmental movement we seek to catalyze radical collaboration within the room and beyond. Prepare to discover new methods for working together with the goal of advancing your organization and increasing the collective strength of our Green Movement.”
