The Council maintains a dynamic library of resources for global Grantmakers. Country Notes are a widely-used resource that provides detailed information on domestic non-profit laws in 35 countries. In 2019, we expanded content around our 13 most-visited countries to create new, members-only resources where we identify local networks and contacts, curate reports on country-level trends, and list funders actively working in specific countries.

Here is an example of one of our 13 expanded country notes:
