OAK's History continued . . .

Most of OAK's early members hailed from the national grassroots, legal / judicial reform
community.  It eventually became prudent to limit OAK's operation outside their direct concerns.  

OAK was conceived as a management tool serving compatible aspects of its members' diverse
agendas.  OAK administrators still operate on the philosophy that transcending obvious
differences and perceiving critical similarities is a learned phenomenon.  As best it can, OAK
continues to speak, teach, and provide practical shortcuts to overcome differences among
natural social justice partners.  OAK members are accordingly urged to stay mindful of these
essential ingredients for a successful coalition:

    • The coalition must be beneficial to all of its constituent parts; there must be something
    in it for everyone.
    • There must be mutual respect and understanding. (All participants) must demonstrate
    an ability to understand the others’ point of view, even when there is disagreement.
    • There must be a willingness to compromise.
    • There must be a sense of partnership, even if member parties are different in size.
    Partnership does not mean that all responsibilities and positions are divided evenly
    within the coalition, but that each grouping is respected for the unique attributes it brings
    to the coalition and has an equitable and fair say in how decisions are made and
    benefits distributed.  Coalition Best Practices, National Democratic Institute For
    International Affairs,  Presentation by I. Doherty – 2004.
