    Country Report 2018: Uruguay
    (2018) Pousadela, Inés M.
    Individuals in Uruguay are free to form organizations, and there are no restrictions on the types or purposes of philanthropic organizations, as long as they are not-for-profit. The country, however, lacks a unified legal framework for all of civil society organizations. Instead, the legal framework is made up of a collection of laws, decrees, and government agencies' internal regulations issued at various times; additionally, the exisitng framework applies different criteria to a variety of philanthropic entities (civil associations, foundations, cooperatives, trade unions, etc.). It is worth noting that the current regulatory framework emphasizes bureaucratic control over the promotion of civil society activities.
