Partnerships: helping us and our partners achieve our purpose and goals
Popcorn has created partnership 'types' to help map out whether a partnership is likely to help us achieve our purpose and goals (and fits in with our values). This mapping helps us keep a balanced approach to partnerships and keeping Popcorn's needs at the core of our decision-making.
Potential Partnerships will be shared on the forum as part of the Advice Process step 3: gather input from stakeholders.
