  • Do As I Say, Not As I Do
    Giving Thought discussion paper no. 5 Do as I say, not as I do: UK policy and the global closing space for civil society: a 2017 update December 2016 January 2017 1 About Giving Thought Giving Thought is the Charities Aid Foundation’s think tank. We consider the key challenges and opportunities facing civil society organisations and those who support them, as well as examining wider policy issues through the lens of philanthropy. Our work provides insight and stimulates debate. We aim to engage with and influence researchers, practitioners and policymakers from the not-for-profit sector, government, academia and the public and private sectors. About the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) is a leading international civil society organisation (CSO). Our mission is to motivate society to give ever more effectively and help transform lives and communities around the world. We work to stimulate philanthropy, social investment and the effective use of charitable funds by offering a range of specialist financial services to CSOs and donors, and through advocating for a favourable public policy environment. About this report This report is an updated version of a report of the same title published by CAF in April 2016 to coincide with an official visit from Maina Kiai, UN Special Rapporteur on the rights to peaceful assembly and of association (a follow-up visit to his 2013 review), who spoke about the closing space for civil society at Parliamentary event hosted by CAF. That report sought to raise awareness of the impact that UK policy - given position of leadership and long history of cultivating civil society - could have on the closing space for civil society globally.

  • The Big Society: a New Policy Environment for the Third Sector? Pete Alcock
    Third Sector Research Centre Working Paper 82 The Big Society: a new policy environment for the third sector? Pete Alcock June 2012 Working Paper 82 Paper Working June 2012 June Abstract This Working Paper updates the analysis of the Coalition government’s Big Society policy agenda first published in 2010. It explores the policy context for the Big Society initiative and the key features of the policy programme developed by the Coalition since 2010. It then outlines some of the contradictions and challenges within this policy programme, and for the relations between the third sector and the state more generally. It is also pointed out that the Big Society is an English political discourse with different policy developments now taking place within the devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Keywords Big Society, third sector, policy, civil society, devolution. Acknowledgements An earlier version of this paper was published in Voluntary Sector Review, Vol. 1, No. 3, pp. 379-90. This version will also be published as a chapter in The Welfare State Reader, 3rd edition, F. Castles, I. Nauman and C. Pierson (eds.) Polity Press, 2012.

  • Financial Education Forum Papers, May 2020 2
    Financial Education Forum Member Updates May 2020 FINANCIAL EDUCATION FORUM PAPERS, MAY 2020 2 Introduction from Sharon Davies Chief Executive of Young Enterprise These are extraordinary times that we are living through, and firstly, I very much hope that you and your families are safe and well. The Covid-19 pandemic presents extreme challenges for all members of our financial education community in terms of economic impact, as well as personal impact. Speaking from the charity perspective here at Young Enterprise and Young Money, the charity sector overall has been particularly hard hit. Most charities are seeing a very sharp drop in income, and this is not just in the short-term during lockdown. For the months to come we will be experiencing the ramifications of Covid-19 in terms of vastly reduced income for our charity sector. We will have to see how successful the Government’s support package is in supporting the economy and specifically the charity sector. Returning to the Financial Education Forum, our last meeting in October 2019 seems like a lifetime ago. We have since had the General Election and have formally exited the EU. We have of course also had a Government reshuffle or two – Gavin Williamson remains in charge of Education, with John Glen still Economic Secretary at HM Treasury, but with changes to other key portfolios such as the Chancellor. The APPG on Financial Education for Young People, for which Young Money acts as Secretariat as you know, was formally reconstituted as a group in January, as required following a General Election.
