Michael Edwards writes for The Guardian UK:
Foundations do have power, and their influence is growing. But they also have an obligation to use it in ways that help others to choose the future that is best for them – even if this takes more time, differs from standard templates, and encounters detours along the way. Balancing the demands of democracy with the determination to address global problems in a focused and energetic manner is the key issue facing philanthropy in the century to come.
