Multi-stakeholder initiatives for development of
Impact Ecosystems
The publication "Multi-Stakeholder Initiatives for the Development of Impact Ecosystems" is dedicated to investigating how networks, coalitions, and collaborative arrangements can generate real systemic transformations in Brazil.
The study systematizes lessons learned from 17 practical cases to offer a common repertoire on governance, systemic leadership, and financial sustainability.
Without attempting to exhaust the complexity of the subject, its purpose is to offer tools — such as the Canvas for Multi-Stakeholder Initiatives — that encourage critical analysis, experimentation, and the continuous strengthening of those seeking to solve socio-environmental challenges through collective action.
What is the purpose of this publication?
This publication serves as a practical framework for structuring multi-stakeholder initiatives, seeking to harmonize concepts and strengthen the culture of collaboration in Brazil. By consolidating lessons learned from 17 real-world cases and providing innovative methodological tools, such as the Ecosystem Canvas, the material aims to equip the management of networks and coalitions, transforming theories of change into coordinated and resilient action strategies.
Who is it for?
This study is intended for leaders, network managers, social investors, and facilitators who face the challenge of coordinating actions across different institutions. Our goal is to support those seeking to move from isolated projects to building vibrant ecosystems, providing strategic clarity for professionals who facilitate dialogue, make funding decisions, or manage the supporting infrastructure (backbones) in collaborative arrangements.
