TSRC Deputy Director John Mohan was an invited speaker at a workshop on managing non-profit organisations, at the King Fahd University, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, in November. John was asked to focus on the evidence base around the characteristics of the voluntary sector in the UK and the challenges of definition and measurement of voluntary action.

This is of relevance to the small, but growing, community of researchers interested in developing the knowledge base on the sector in the Kingdom.
