‘As someone who had the privilege of participating in the Community Collaboration Initiative (CCI), whose model is documented in this book, I highly recommend this reading. Put simply, the more cross-cultural, interfaith, and intrafaith learning we experience as leaders, the better position we are in to collaborate with each other toward tangible and meaningful outcomes. The learnings from the CCI, and this book, will be beneficial to the social impact sector, to philanthropy, and beyond.’
