Our Initiatives
INVOLVE Communities
Involve is a global platform uniting Communities of Practice driving systems change for the planet. It fosters learning, collaboration, and knowledge exchange across biodiversity, land use, climate and forest, resilient ecosystems and food systems, and connects 1000+ practitioners to co-create and scale nature-positive solutions and sectoral transformations for sustainability.
The Involve Communities platform hosts and moderates several digital collaboration spaces (DCS) and supports the provision of important programmatic functions such as project management, needs assessment, technical support, access to guidance documents, as well as learning and capacity building events, south-south knowledge exchanges, and overall knowledge management. These customizable digital collaboration spaces enable global and regional programmes to welcome, coordinate, support and improve the effectiveness of their country teams and stakeholders who are widely dispersed around the world.
The platform is currently home to the following strategic communities:
- The Food & Agricultural Commodity Systems Community (FACS Community)
- The Food Systems, Land Use and Restoration Community (FOLUR Community)
- The Blue & Green Islands Community (BGI Community)
Our Involve Communities are driven by its members: every year learning and capacity building events are determined by needs assessments and consultation with members and project practitioners.
