The ACNC's five-year strategy: A more visible charity market
Gary Johns
What the paper says
There exists a market in charitable intentions that involves exchanges between donors (funders) and charities (representing beneficiaries). Information and trust are vital in these exchanges. The Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC, or the Commission) collects important information about the 57,000 charities registered with it. The Commission is exploring how this data could be made publicly available in a way that would create a more informed and better functioning charity market, and enhance discussion about the sector's performance. To this end, the Commission has embarked on two data projects. The first is the 'Program Marketplace' project, the aim of which is to enable users of the ACNC Register to search for comparable charity programs provided for specific beneficiaries in specific locations. The second project aims to enable the Commissioner to publish a regular series of statistics that provide a measure of the positive attributes referred to in the second object of the ACNC Act: the extent to which the charity sector is robust, vibrant, independent and innovative.
