Disaster Grantmaking: A Practical Guide for Foundations and Corporations
Developed by the European Foundation Centre and the Council on Foundations
A very clear guide for foundations and corporations on how to be more effective in addressing disasters. The guide describes eight principles of good disaster management. From those principles, it offers practical suggestions, lessons from experience, examples of good and bad practices, and facts and figures.
