	Welcome to the Campbell Collaboration
		The Campbell Collaboration (C2) is an independent, international, non-profit organization that strives to provide decision-makers with evidence-based information to empower them to make well-informed decisions about the effects of interventions in the social, behavioral and educational arenas.
		The Campbell Collaboration’s substantive priorities include, though are not confined to, education, social welfare, and crime and justice.
		The Collaboration is largely a voluntary organization that welcomes newcomers from around the world, irrespective of professional or disciplinary background.

	Collaboration (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Collaboration is a partnership of interdependence and requires that nurses, physicians and other health care providers have complementary rather than hierarchical roles (Saur and Ford, 1995).
		Collaboration by definition requires a mutual sharing and working together to achieve a common goal so that each person's contribution is recognized.
		Collaboration is not competitive with other health care providers but a partnership in which collaborators participate in joint decision making.

	Collaboration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dating from 1871, collaboration is a back-formation from collaborator (1802), from the French collaborateur, ultimately from the Latin collaboratus, past participle of collaborare ("work with"), itself derived from com- ("with") and labore ("to work").
		One opinion is that whilst collaboration is natural in some societies, and is generally natural in pre-existing teams, collaboration is unnatural in new groups and western society.
		The use of "collaboration" to mean "traitorous cooperation with the enemy," dates from 1940, originally in reference to the Vichy Regime in France, and other French people who helped Nazi Germany.

	(U) Intelligence Community Collaboration Baseline Study
		In general, the basic elements of effective teamwork and collaboration are the same regardless of whether team members are working in a face-to-face meeting or working in a virtual environment that connects team members separated by either time or space.
		The hierarchical depiction of the collaboration levels in Figure 3 is not intended to imply an ideal level of IC collaboration.
		Managers should communicate the goals for the collaboration effort, the level of organizational commitment to ensure success of the project, and the priority of the project within the context of the day-to-day responsibilities of the analysts participating in the collaboration.

	How to Save the World
		Collaboration could be improved by (a) creating a lot more opportunities to practice it, (b) speaking out when supposedly or potentially collaborative activities aren't, and fixing them so they are, and (c) ousting the egos and outing the wallflowers in collaborative groups so participation is equal.
		Collaboration is much more than any of these things, but, sadly, because so many large business environments are so dysfunctional, it is almost impossible to find great examples of business collaboration anywhere.
		Business needs to raise the bar by which it assesses its collaborative performance to a comparable high level, and appreciate that many of the attributes (competitiveness, hierarchy, the cult of leadership, and sheer mind-boggling size) that are the hallmarks of the modern corporation work directly against the achievement of greatness in collaboration.

	Collaboration, Knowledge Representation and Automatability
		"Collaboration" over the World Wide Web is a very broad area of research, involving wide-reaching issues such as knowledge representation, annotation of objects by objects, notification, and any other issues which arise in the creation of shared information systems and collaborative development.
		The first Workshop on WWW and Collaboration was held in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA from 11-12 September 1995.
		At the Workshop on WWW and Collaboration, 11-12 September 1995, a large number of issues were raised, and several working groups were formed to work on specific issues.

	National Network for Collaboration Framework
		Collaborative community efforts are constructive responses to creating caring communities and expanding the safety net for children, youth and families.
		The goal of community collaboration is to bring individuals and members of communities, agencies and organizations together in an atmosphere of support to systematically solve existing and emerging problems that could not be solved by one group alone.
		Collaborations which have support and endorsement of key people, groups and organizations in power are more likely to be effective in reaching the agreed upon outcomes.

	Culture of Collaboration - ECOSYSTEM - Magazine - Darwin Online for Informed Executives (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Collaborative tools on the market today make it easy to coordinate large groups by enabling members to post questions, work jointly on documents, schedule meetings and track progress toward goals.
		Psychologist Calmas says that the best incentives for fostering collaboration are "verbal praise, the thrill of making a contribution, working in a productive group and having your ideas appreciated." Rather than punish employees who don't participate in the collaborative environment, celebrate the contributions of those who do.
		Collaborative tools will be adopted more widely within a company and their use will become more routine if employees and executives understand how much time and money they save—and the savings can be dramatic.

	Occupied France
		Collaboration was also essential in ensuring that Vichy was given the time and space to reconstruct France along the lines of the National Revolution.
		Collaboration, therefore, was a reality for the French authorities as early as the 25 June 1940 when the terms of the armistice came into force.
		Collaboration with the Germans on a number of projects was, for example, particularly beneficial to the French aircraft industry.
