The Commonwealth Foundation: An Overview
Abstract
The Commonwealth Foundation, now five years old, administers a fund designed to increase interchanges between Commonwealth organizations in professional fields. Twenty‐six Commonwealth Governments subscribe to the Foundation's annual income and nominate trustees to serve on its board. A non‐political organization, its activities have included: encouraging the growth of Commonwealth‐wide professional associations, creating national professional centres, helping to create national professional societies, promoting regional professional activity, increasing the personal interchange of skills and experience and broadening professional knowledge through the printed word. It adheres to the view that the Commonwealth remains an association of peoples who, at professional and other levels, still have much in common; much to build on, much to conserve.
