Sectarianism aside (to a degree), how are the orgs you work with engaging with neighboring leftist and progressive organizations in your area? Zooming out, how are they working with international comrades?

Obviously the "western" left has some wild issues with sectarianism, how much does that impact collaboration in your org / geographic area? I'd really love to see a more concerted effort to get organizations collaborating, even if in the short term we don't have a Comintern per se. Its kinda bizarre how little cross collaboration we see so there is so much recreating the wheel across many orgs, and it feels like such a waste of time, energy, and labor in general.

Orgs don't need to agree on tactics, but it would be nice to see some rough merging together of strategies. nothing concrete or mandated necessarily, but something where established orgs can share their experience, newly budding orgs can learn more quickly from their comrades, materials and resources can be shared to a degree, etc.
