Our Model for Change
Creating meaningful change in how AI serves society requires three key elements working together: understanding how innovation spreads through an ecosystem, building bridges between different groups, and driving change through coordinated action. Our model brings these together into a comprehensive framework for collaborative innovation.
Activate the Ecosystem
We recognise the roles of motivation, capability, and opportunity, and use this to recognise different ways we can partner and grow.
Key Elements:
- Respect different starting points
- Recognise different strengths and needs
- Link people to matching allies and activities
Build Bridges
Our Collective Design framework tackles barriers to collaboration across sectors. We support conditions and infrastructure for diverse groups to work together.
Key Elements:
- Connect partners
- Create ways to work together
- Build trust through action
- Distributed leadership
Connect Action
Our three dimensions of action bring together allies from different domains to spark new possibilities, sculpt the ecosystem, and steward sustainable progress.
Key Elements:
- Spark: Igniting connections and capacity
- Sculpt: Shaping solutions and practices
- Steward: Ensuring robust, sustainable progress
How These Frameworks Work Together
These three frameworks reinforce each other to create a comprehensive approach to collaborative innovation:
A Unified Model for Change
- Understanding the Ecosystem → Helps us identify where and how to build effective bridges and drive meaningful change
- Building Bridges → Creates the connections and infrastructure that allow ecosystem participants to work together effectively
- Driving Change → Provides clear pathways to turn ecosystem potential and bridged connections into real impact
Get Involved
