Vision:
Design Plan for the Pillar to be driven by Climate as the “envelope” for urban innovation, public health, education, community, and economic revitalization programs. Framing should guide internal project planning and outreach to external expertise, partners, and groups.
Short term Goals
Develop a communications template that guides planning including funding applications – What is the “unique promise” or value proposition contributed by each stakeholder and how is it persuasive for engaging external participants
Mission statement with some initial goals
- Support internal stakeholders’ activities with an agreed upon “values proposition” designed to engage external stakeholders and funders, guided by a framing that uses climate as the “envelope” for innovation, public health, education, community, and economic revitalization programs
- Co-develop the framing story
- Co-develop a communications format for collaborations
- Co-develop planning templates
- Map projects and goals
Strategic Plan- future activities
- Plan a demonstration project with a vision that can move participants beyond the status quo
- Create a compelling vision with a communication and collaboration plan – that can also serve as an research opportunity to chart barriers and craft ways to overcome them to accomplish goals
- Secure Planning Grants
- As project shows results create a communications system for “observers” to accelerate broader engagement
- Develop other projects using this basic approach with the goal of cultivating a shared culture of knowledge building, cooperation, and cross sector relationship development for impactful outcomes
