New guidance has been published to encourage funders to be more accountable in pursuing international missions and objectives. The European Foundation Centre (EFC) and the US Council on Foundations (COF) have published Principles of Accountability for International Philanthropy to provide a framework to assist more foundations to get involved internationally.
The Principles are the result of a two-year collaborative effort of a 14-member EFC-COF working group. With international philanthropy growing rapidly in both Europe and the US, along with other forms of cross-border cooperation, it was designed in response to donors' search for guidance on how to ensure that their international philanthropy is conducted in an accountable, transparent and responsible manner.
Download the Principles free of charge from www.efc.be/4795. The Principles are also available in hardcopy format.
