New online resource on cross-sector collaboration between public sector and religious leaders.
 

The Hauser Center and the Ash Institute for Democratic Governance and Innovation have developed two online curriculum modules on cross-sector collaboration. One module is designed for educators of religious leaders, while one is designed for public managers. These online modules are the products of a Pew Charitable Trusts-funded project called the Executive Session on Faith-Based and Community Approaches to Urban Revitalization.

Philanthropy Classics Project.

A decade ago, the two dozen academic programs on nonprofit organizations in the United States were generally located in colleges and universities whose libraries usually owned the important publications relating to philanthropy, charity, voluntary associations, and related topics.

Today, there are more than two hundred programs offering courses and/or degrees on nonprofits around the world, most of which do not have easy access to key articles and journals in the field.

This series of on-line reissues of classic works on philanthropy, nonprofit organizations, charity, and related topics, hopes to meet the needs of students, faculty, and researchers for classic books and articles produced over the past century.  Click here to go the Philanthropy Classics web site.
