Funding and Governance

Foundation grants provide the base of financial support, although individual donations, subscriptions, and general support from the IRC and IPS also make FPIF possible. Among the foundations that provided support in 2004 were the Arca Foundation, CarEth Foundation, Colombe Foundation, Compton, Deer Creek Foundation, Donner Foundation, Educational Foundation of America, The Ford Foundation, General Service Foundation, United Methodist Church, Ploughshares Foundation, Presbyterian Church USA, Rockefeller Brothers Foundation, Samuel Rubin Foundation, and Town Creek.

FPIF has an Advisory Committee that helps shape the project's direction, although the governance responsibilities for FPIF belong to the boards of directors of the Interhemispheric Resource Center and the Institute for Policy Studies. Ultimate executive authority is vested in the IRC and IPS executive directors, while the two project codirectors manage FPIF's daily operations and serve as the project's chief editors.
