Description
To effectively leverage the immense passion, wisdom, and resources invested in education reform efforts, the field must develop strategies that acknowledge and address that each of the important strands of work being undertaken are parts of the same systems and as such have significant interdependencies. Raising awareness of the need for this integration in the field, and catalyzing new ways of working that take these mindsets and practices into account, starts with helping the field develop greater sophistication around the questions related to this challenge. The Corporation’s Integration Design Consortium (IDC), launched in 2016, aims to explore these questions through five place-based approaches to integrating different parts of the system. The Business Innovation Factory aims to amplify the impact of these five projects by ensuring the capture, analysis and sharing of learnings related to the key questions that these projects are investigating. Through this support, they hope to catalyze and equip others in the field to take action around the challenge of integration.
