To solve the crises we face - especially the pressing issues of climate change, poverty and human trafficking - radical collaboration is essential.

Collaboration is a complex matter, and should not be sought just for its own sake. Maintain a focus on the mission, and note Himmelman's stages of working together - move in gradual steps in deepening relationships, look for practical, achievable actions, and find the level appropriate to the relationship and the mission.

See Collaboration #How far should we go? for further examination of this issue.
