Using Collective Impact for Economic Mobility with Khalil Salim

  • Summary

  • Collective impact—a framework where organizations across sectors come together with a shared vision—can play a big role in addressing complex issues like economic mobility.

    This is especially important in cities like Charlotte, where decades of structural barriers have limited upward mobility for many residents.

    Collective impact brings together nonprofits, businesses, and government agencies to work toward common goals, using data to measure progress and drive decisions.

    Today’s guest, Khalil Salim, Ph.D., Director of Research and Evaluation at United Way of Greater Charlotte, shares his expertise on how this collaborative approach is being used to address Charlotte’s challenges, and his thoughts on Raj Chetty’s latest research.

    (11:00) How to measure and document success from a shared goal
