The Institute for Voluntary Action Research (IVAR) is an independent UK charity. It is a research organisation founded in 2000. It supports the sustainability of charities, community groups, and funders. They use “action research” to turn real-world challenges into practical insights, promoting better collaboration, funding practices, and social change. As part of their Open and Trusting grant-making programme, IVAR has researched and published a Case Study to examine and share the method of working and successes of the Perthshire Youth Work Partnership. We hope that other funding agencies will use the Case Study as a starting block to review how they can work more collaboratively in a more trusting approach to supporting charities.
