Sustaining collaborative problem solving: strategies from a study in six Asian countries
This paper presents findings from seven case studies of collaborative probelm solving. The cases represent models of large-scale collaborative effort to improve the social, economic or health status of residents in poor communities. In these examples a variety of organizations worked together: government, business, voluntary agencies, community groups and people's organizations. A range of strategies was evident as these entities tried to sustain their collaboration. Strategies identified included those deployed collectively, those used by an individual organization to maintain its ability to participate and those used to persuade or pressure needed collaboratorsn to become involved or stay the course. Specific strategies employed and descriptions of their use are presented and comprise a compelling profile of how collaborative problem solving functions.
