EEFA Coalition Cookbook: A Guide to Successful Coalition Building Practices

The EEFA Coalition Cookbook is a guide to successful coalition building practices, inspired by the experience of and meant to sustain the work of Energy Efficiency for All.

Coalitions are a key means to achieving success both for policy advocacy, program change, and for achieving long-term transformational change. Bringing together and sustaining a coalition — any group of organizations committed to a shared vision, jointly defined goals, and consolidating resources — is the main focus of this guide, which reviews practical steps and guidelines, suggests specific coalition behaviors, and offers suggested tools for structuring and strengthening coalitions.
