  Boards of Directors and Governance Systems

  Martha Farmelo · William and Flora Hewlett Foundation · 2015 (Spanish original 2014)

  A practical guide to strengthening NGO boards, first written in Spanish for organisations in Latin America, where board development tools adapted to local culture and language were scarce. The English version followed requests from outside the region. It walks through board roles, structures and governance systems in practical steps, with tools that boards and executive directors can apply to their own organisation.

  Effective Board Governance for Civil Society Organisations

  Charles Kojo Vandyck · West Africa Civil Society Institute (WACSI) · 2017

  An article on how the boards of civil society organisations develop over time in the African context. Drawing on WACSI's work with CSOs, the author looks at the stages of board development, asks whether boards move through them in a fixed order and discusses how to diagnose the health of a board. CSO leaders and board members use it to place their own board on that path and decide what to work on next.
