Bridge

BRIDGE has subsequently built on these founding ideas to shape its intervention. The mission of BRIDGE is to connect people; we foster collaboration so that collective effort and the sharing of ideas helps spread successful practice. This in turn promotes systemic improvements in education. In support of its mission, BRIDGE works with a wide range of stakeholders through convening communities of practice and in the context of collaborative projects. BRIDGE believes that complex problems require the views of diverse stakeholders in order to solve them. BRIDGE stakeholders include representatives from civil society, government, funders, educational practitioners, learners, teachers, principals, parents, research organisations, universities and unions. The BRIDGE mission is captured in the BRIDGE Outcomes as set out below. The BRIDGE outcomes can be seen at work in some of the results of BRIDGE's work, such as projects or partnerships in which resources are shared or co-created, innovations are developed, and there is a quicker uptake of effective solutions and good practices. BRIDGE community of practice members have also, through collaborative effort, been able to give input into policy as well as integrate a better working knowledge of policy into their own programmes.
