        Summary
        The thesis discusses the collaborative dynamics of a project alliance with multiple European parties. In the center of this project is the transnationally operating organization MasterPeace, which organizes and manages such projects. This paper has the goal to contribute to the difficulty of non-profit organizations to collaborate effectively and provides a unique approach utilizing the theory for collaborative advantage while applying an inherently pragmatic approach. Some of the main concepts discussed are leadership, membership structure, trust and commitment as well as communication and identity. The research provides an actionable and practical approach aiming to support MasterPeace in their operations. The thesis concluded with recommendations aiming to enhance the clarity of communication structures and aiming for more standardization. The paper indicated how MasterPeace is doing exceptionally well on managing their network, retaining an incredible level of trust among partners. A very important aspect is the constant tension for organizations to balance what is causing collaborative advantages and what is causing collaborative disadvantages.
