Are you interested in developing or freshening up your knowledge of philanthropy via direct access to relevant academic work? Do you want to showcase your expertise and grow your knowledge by signing up for the ERNOP Research Note database of practitioner experts?

- ERNOP will match the expert with a relevant academic publication on their preferred topic.
- ERNOP will approach you and ask if you are available to create the research note.
- It is estimated that it will take you a maximum of 6 hours to read the academic article and create a Research Note.
- About six weeks after a match has been made and after approval of the research note by the original author, ERNOP will publish the research note on its web pages.
