Hinweis der Redaktion
- Where does CORE Group fit in and why are we important to this changing world? We are member-led. We foster collaborative action and learning. We reach the underserved with evidence-based high-impact interventions and innovations. Our organizations reach 720 million people worldwide – 1/10 of the world’s population. We work together with other similar organizations as well as scholars, advocates and donors.
- How do we work together? We’re always evolving, but our “Community Health Network” now has 58 member organizations (double from 2003), 21 associate organizations (double from last year) and 20 individual associates that share our mission, plus partners around the world who share their expertise with us at meetings and webinars. Our 8 volunteer working groups, 5 interest groups (mhealth, NCD, adolescents, mental health and immunization) enable us to learn together, diffuse our learning to others, and work to improve global community health policies. Program learning and knowledge management is our key strength.
- We’ve just voted in one new member organization this meeting, and the Board of Directors approved 6 new associate organizations since January. Please get to know these organizations and make them feel welcome.
- We had two new contributions to peer reviewed journals demonstrating the value of community approaches plus some outstanding articles from our polio team.
- CORE Group is the manager of the Food Security and Nutrition Network through the USAID Funded Title II TOPS project. Building on our networking expertise we were able to develop a similar participatory meeting on Resilience for the FSN Network meeting, and we’ve hired a new staff to look into the management of on-line communities.
- As a network, our budget is very lean, with 8 staff and around $1.5 million / year. We work as partners of MCHIP, the TOPS project, World Vision Polio, and Dimagi. We are trying to grow our foundation funding, private gifts and citizen support through the combined federal campaign. We need to be proactive in selection of funding opportunities that match working group directions. We encourage you to contact us when you see an RFA or opportunity where our diffusion and knowledge management niche will not compete with our members but instead provide that neutral safe environment for joint product development, ownership and use.
- Networks are needed more than ever. As stated in a global health book from the Carter Center, collaboration is imperative for success. Yet, we know how fragile our funding is.
- Why Invest in CORE? We are part of the solution offering a unique niche to increase the ease and pace of community health impact. We are a neutral convener where competing organizations can collaborate, where each organization doesn’t need to recreate the wheel, where professional can advance the quality of their work together, such as through this meeting focusing on data use.
