Collaborative Governance Resources

The Many-to-Many System is a collection of learning, resources, frameworks, and tools to support ways of thinking, organising, and governing for the reality of collaboration that crosses the siloes that we often get stuck in. It offers ways of organising and contracting that can include disrupting traditional norms, assumptions around ownership and expertise, and hierarchies of power to create equitable, collaborative, governance structures fit for the messy reality of creating change in a challenging world.

LocalMotion has been part of the Many to Many System of practitioners working with Dark Matter Labs to trial and test the Many to Many System resources in real world collaborations dealing with entangled issues.
