Foundations: The European Experience

If you are interested in expanding your knowledge of civil society and would like to look beyond the strategies used by American foundations, there is a new book from the Alliance Publishing Trust that may suit your needs. Philanthropy in Europe: A Rich Past, A Promising Future contains 13 in-depth foundation profiles to help you understand the history and programs of each grantmaker. In addition, six essays by leading experts explore issues facing European foundations. The volume concludes with an analysis of why the European Union needs foundation laws that facilitate international activities.

Philanthropy in Europe was edited by Norine MacDonald, president of the Gabriel Foundation, and Luc Tayart de Borms, managing director of the King Baudouin Foundation.
