Why collective efforts falter — and how to make them work better.
Collaboration is emerging as a strategic imperative in India’s development sector — but translating that intent into practice is anything but simple. Despite shared visions and aligned goals, many partnerships stumble over the same hurdles: unclear roles, power imbalances, fragmented accountability, and the emotional labour of "holding it all together."
This session goes behind the scenes of collaborative work in the Indian context — examining what happens when good intentions collide with complex realities. Drawing on lived experience and practitioner insight, we’ll explore why collective efforts so often fall short, and what it really takes to build trust, stay aligned, and make collaboration work over the long haul.
