Project Approach
How We Helped Them
We-Collab worked closely with PI to design and execute a collaborative, inclusive process that provided CBOs with the resources, support, and frameworks they needed to succeed.
- Branding & Communication: We co-created the SYNC brand with CBOs to ensure their ownership and investment in the project, fostering trust and community.
- Curriculum Development: Together with core partners, we built a curriculum that integrated multi-sectoral violence prevention strategies, public health approaches, and data-driven decision-making, giving CBOs actionable knowledge they could apply immediately.
- Hybrid Facilitation: We combined virtual workshops, asynchronous learning, and a two-day in-person convening to engage participants fully while maintaining accessibility.
- Convening Logistics & Programming: The in-person convening featured keynotes, breakout sessions, and healing circles designed to build deep connections and resonate with the cultural backgrounds of the CBOs and the communities they serve.
