This booklet provides an overview of how GuideStar systems have been used or are viewed by civil society organisations, individual and institutional donors, government and policy makers, media and researchers. Most of the examples and statements in this booklet are drawn from the experiences of those using GuideStar systems in the United States, and United Kingdom. The success of these flagship services portends the value GuideStars will have in new countries. Accordingly we have included the views and opinions of some of GSI’s national development partners from around the world. Read the booklet
