You are invited to join this workshop with the Bridgespan team to learn about Field Building and how it might be part of bringing communities together to tackle systems change.
We are seeing a growing focus on systems-level change in place-based work because communities very often have limited power to influence the changes they value most and must look beyond the scope and scale of their communities to achieve change. Field Building is an approach to equitable systems change that Bridgespan Group in the US have defined and explored over several years. It is about how people and organisations come together to tackle a common cause - a field of change to deliver population-level impact. Much has been learned through Bridgespan’s research and advisory work about how to build a field, how to progress change according to the maturity and other characteristics of a field and the case for funding the capability needed to catalyse and support field-building efforts. The Bridgespan team will share their knowledge and experiences and help us explore what that means for developing UK place-based change practice.
