Part B – Design an Interagency Collaboration (1,000 words)

The interagency collaboration you design should ideally be related to your current occupation and involve multiple agencies acting at different ‘levels’ (e.g. Utilities (operations, management, andsenior management), Government, Non-government etc).You should relate the activity back to the definition of collaboration in the week 3 MyContent; “Collaboration is a process that involves two or more stakeholders, who pool their resources and appreciations to jointly make decisions about a set of problems” (adapted from Gray 1985:912 by Kelly 2011).
