as for "community" both societas and communitas are ok, but the tone of your questions makes me believe you mean "communitas"

p.s.: \"communitas\" means\"community, fellowship\" (from \"communis\" ( common).
\"societas\"\"friendly association with others,\" from socius \"companion\" (social). Meaning \"group of people living together in an ordered community\" is from 1639. Sense of \"fashionable people and their doings\" is first recorded 1823.

pp.ss.: the verb \"collaborare\" \"work with,\" from com- \"with\" + labore \"to work.\" also exist, from which \"collaboratio\", yet I\'d rather use \"consensio\" in your case.
besides, but I am not sure at all, \"collaboratio\" idoes not belong to the age of golden Latin
