European foundations facing the challenges of impact governance
Governance of impact is critical for foundations. It shapes how the board and executive leadership make optimal decisions to advance their organization’s mission, playing a central role in creating, implementing, and assessing the foundation’s strategy. But this perspective needs to broaden, opening more to external voices and stakeholders, and ensuring accountability flows not only top-down but also bottom-up. Esade Professor Guillermo Casasnovas hosted a discussion with Leonora Buckland, ECSI senior researcher and one of the authors of the report Governance of Impact: Can European Foundations Rise to the Challenge? Together, they examine the report’s key insights and debate the desirable future of governance in philanthropy.Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
