Would be helpful if you posted videos that show how the principles behind Collective Impact are actually executed within a profiled project or initiative. This would make these principles more concrete for the viewer. tx

I like the two video show collective impact in action. An additional video focusing on educational intiative that uses collective impact would be very beneficial to our work.
