As a young and learning organization, The Collaborative always keeps an eye on opportunities for innovation and improved inclusion. In that spirit, we are currently engaged with colleagues outside North America about opportunities to develop “hub” partnerships elsewhere around the world. The goal here is to encourage and catalyze various nodes of engagement with our shared mission, with the understanding that each node brings specific histories, insights, and desires. This conversation continues to develop. For specific membership inquiries, please contact npreynolds@haverford.edu.
