ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Coalition

A coalition is when two or more groups work together. It is like a team, but instead of everyone in the team being the same (like a sports team of the same age), they each bring something different to the table. For example, a coalition of environmental groups might include a national conservation society, a small local non-profit, and a college environmental club. Each group in the coalition will have different skills, knowledge and resources, but they all come together to work on a common goal.
