The Equity-Centered Capacity Building Network (ECCBN) was formed to unite the efforts and share resources and strategies among equity- and excellence-centered capacity builders and to increase the visibility and impact of capacity-building approaches that promote deep and sustainable school and systems change.
Network members currently consist of regional and national organizations with: a focus on transforming whole school systems, in addition to individual schools; targeted approaches to equity, excellence and cultural responsiveness deeply embedded into every aspect of their work; local credibility as well as national reach and influence; a strong desire to work collaboratively; and a track record of success with school systems locally, regionally and nationally. Future membership anticipates including local individual and institutional capacity builders, as well as other regional and national providers who meet these criteria.
Network members have included the following organizations and their representatives:
National Urban Alliance for Effective Education (NY)
Center for Culturally Responsive Urban Education at the University of Colorado, Denver (CO)
Stanford University, Graduate School of Education (CA)
Panasonic Foundation (NJ)
Intercultural Development Research Association (TX)
