Papers

 

The Foundation recognises that, as a think-tank, it provides thought-development-leadership.
One way the Foundation makes a contribution to understanding is the writing of position papers. These have been developed around issues of which GHFP people are actively aware, and have sought to investigate.

The initial aim of papers offered by the GHFP in this way is to provide opportunities for people to look at issues from alternative perspectives, and to work to provoke awareness of these issues in social policy formation.
