What are we doing?
The Solution
We believe that what’s needed to change this situation is a collective initiative to implement knowledge-sharing solutions for the benefit of the sector as a whole. This project is exploring 2 different approaches in which the sector can do this.
-
Learning Circle
The Learning Circle is an opportunity for funders to develop a shared understanding of the nonprofit sector’s current learning practices and to create a path to a more collaborative approach to learning.
-
Shared Infrastructure
We are looking to make knowledge more accessible by exploring different ways to create open-source information infrastructure for the sector. The SKS Hub is one example of the tools we hope to develop.
This exploratory project is a part of the DEAL (Data, Evidence-use and Learning) Strategy, an Ontario Nonprofit Network project looking to ensure that the Ontario nonprofit sector’s data is ethically used and appropriately harnessed to support learning and data-driven decision-making.
