Principles for Good Governance and Ethical Practice: A Guide for Charities and Foundations outlines 33 practices designed to support board members and staff leaders as they work to improve their operations. We encourage staff and volunteers to examine the Principles carefully and determine how they should be applied to their organization.
The Principles Workbook provides further support for organizations committed to improving their governance practices by distilling the core concepts in each of the 33 principles, suggesting discussion points, and providing progress worksheets.
