Programs: Research that Informs Practice
Since its founding, the Center has been engaged in seminal research that considers a broad range of policy and leadership issues relevant to nonprofit practitioners. Through a series of collaborative research initiatives with a range of organizations, our faculty and students continue to develop a base of knowledge on effective policies and practices leading to vibrant and healthy organizations and communities.
Research projects and publications include:
-
A forthcoming Aspen Institute publication on the impact of foundations will include a chapter tentatively titled “Philanthropy and the Cultural Economy,” by Jim Smith and GPPI graduate student Catherine O’Connor.
-
The “Good Works” project will include a chapter, “In Search of an Ethic of Giving,” also by Smith and O’Connor.
