"This scientific committee reflects the multidisciplinary nature of the approach to philanthropy developed at the Centre, through the diversity of the profiles that make it up, in terms of skills, geographical and cultural origins and gender. The international dimension underlines the influence of the GCP, which mobilises this committee like a sounding board: it validates the relevance and quality of the scientific orientations and focuses chosen by the Centre for its academic activities in light of advances in research. It enables the Centre to bring real added value to this rapidly evolving sector. "
