This brief is the second in a series developed in 2013 for the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and focuses on using data to better support postsecondary completion.
In 2013, Equal Measure (then known as the OMG Center for Collaborative Learning) with our client the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, published a series of briefs investigating the key principles of systems change through collective impact strategies, gleaned from a national evaluation of the Foundation’s Community Partnerships Portfolio. This brief addresses two questions:
- Why use data to advance a postsecondary systems change agenda?
- How can communities use data to advance a postsecondary systems change agenda?
The other briefs in our community partnerships series are below:
- Building Commitment
- Using Data (viewing now)
- Aligning Policies and Practices
- Building and Sustaining Partnerships
- Amplifying Learning
