The Board of the Carnegie UK Trust, based in Dunfermline, has agreed a new five year strategic plan from January 2011. The Trustees have decided there should be a change in the way the Trust works. It will move from setting up large scale commissions of inquiry to a project-based approach. From the end of this year, all current programmes for Democracy, Civil Society and Rural development will be brought to an end and it will close its London office. The Trust will continue to place the interests of disadvantaged communities at the heart of its activities and be committed to “changing minds and changing lives”.
