Convening #6 – Lateral Learning

 

Objectives & Outcomes

  • GICP members will have the opportunity to share their insight and learn from fellow community members on two of the four topics:

    • Communications Strategies for Guaranteed Income Programs

    • State Initiatives to Advance GI – How can states lead?

    • Community Driven Pilot Design

    • Evaluation & Research for Guaranteed Income Programs

  • This convening is in response to participants’ interests to have in depth conversations with those leading work in these four areas. The rooms are intended to foster open dialogue on the approaches and challenges members are having in each of these areas as a way to build community and collaboration.
