WHAT WE DO
During 2025 we will be prototyping a combined Fellowship and Collaboration Labs programme designed to:
Build systems leadership
For each Collaboration Lab, we select a cross-sector group of leaders and changemakers to become C3 Fellows. The Lab helps them strengthen their systems leadership capabilities: how to navigate complexity and facilitate more collaborative, inclusive approaches to change.
Strengthen collaboration
Each Lab is focused on a specific nexus issue. During the Lab, we identify opportunities for collaboration between existing programmes, facilitate cross-sector partnerships, and incubate new collaborative initiatives that tackle complex challenges.
Cultivate community
Building trust and community is a key part of the Labs, providing a foundation for effective collaboration between Fellows in the future. Our aim is to build lasting relationships that continue long after the Labs end.
Transform institutions
We also support Fellows to accelerate change within their organisation's culture, operating systems, and funding practices. The aim is to build institutional capacity to tackle complex challenges more effectively and sustain impact in the longer term.
OUR CURRENT WORK
In 2025 C3 is launching two country Labs with a focus on the food-biodiversity-climate nexus
Country Labs in Kenya and Thailand
In 2025 we will be selecting Fellows to join Collaboration Labs in Kenya and Thailand. The focus of the Labs will be on strengthening collaboration to address the food-biodiversity-climate nexus.
Global Learning Lab
We are also launching a Global Learning Lab to explore what changes are needed at the global level to support more collaborative, systemic approaches for addressing the food-biodiversity-climate nexus and other complex challenges.
