Overview
FSG continues to drive some of the most important conversations about the practice of social change. During a time of significant expansion and growth at FSG, the Hewlett Foundation has offered general operating support. The investment has paid off with the launch of FSG’s new Strategic Learning and Evaluation Center, the first entity designed to bring together the skill sets of evaluation and management consulting.
