The Commonwealth Foundation Council of Scholars represents academic and practitioners in a diverse array of fields committed to the mission and vision of the Commonwealth Foundation.

Scholars share their experiences and expertise with CF Staff, keeping us abreast of current research and best practices in policy issues and offering feedback on the work we do.  Some scholars have written or produced research for the Foundation, while others serve as policy advisors and resources.

The opinions expressed by the Commonwealth Foundation members do not necessarily reflect those of the Council of Scholars or their institutions, and vice versa.
