Civil Society and Collaboration with the State and the Market is a comprehensive textbook designed for university students where the dynamic interplay between civil society, business and government is explored. It delves into the intricacies of cross-sector collaboration—a growing global trend where diverse societal actors unite to tackle shared challenges, such as environmental issues and natural disasters.
 
This book examines how, why, and when civil society engages with other sectors, offering insights into key concepts, trends, drivers, forms, benefits, and challenges of cross-sector collaboration. With contributions from international researchers, it provides a rich tapestry of examples from various sectors, regions, and countries, illustrating the diversity of collaborative approaches.
 
Students will gain valuable perspectives on how civil society can fulfill its missions, influence policies, co-produce solutions, and leverage resources through effective partnerships. The different chapters present both case studies and pose thought-provoking questions for further discussion, fostering learning and innovation. Thus, for students from various disciplines this textbook is an essential resource for understanding the power of collaboration in addressing today’s complex societal issues.
