NGO DATA - GRNDS
GRNDS (The Global Register of Nonprofit Data Sources) helps us understand how global civil society organizations are regulated in their respective states. Unlike other data, this cross-national dataset allows us to compare how much data countries collect and release publicly. Collaborative project with Dr. Elizabeth Bloodgood (Concordia University), Dr. Sarah S. Stroup (Middlebury College), and Ajah.
