Network and Collaboration at Large

Why do some organizations tend to work together? How could we reduce barriers to collaboration? Successful urban making relies heavily on how stakeholders can be connected and integrated effectively and efficiently. While new forms of communication challenges (like cybersecurity) and opportunities (various social media platforms) evolve with technology breakthroughs, the quality of communication matters, considering the factors of convenience and trust that may involve. I engage this field with mixed methods, for which I tease at the ecosystem of actors qualitatively and represent the interconnection with social network analysis quantitatively.
