Description
Aid, NGOs and the Realities of Women's Lives explores how international NGOs are navigating changes that challenge their role and legitimacy, their values, and their overall purpose. -The writers explore alternative ways of conceptualizing development, and of bringing about improvements for the most marginalized and increasingly 'unheard' women. -The book calls for a re-examination of theories about change, and a re-focus on ideas of complexity and feminism and on learning from past NGO experience. Aid organizations have their origins in a desire to help the world's poorest and most marginalized people - but are they reaching these people? Several factors are coming together that put pressure on non-government organizations (NGOs) working in international development: the economic crisis, the growing conditionality of aid, and increased competition for funding between NGOs. This creates 'a perfect storm' driven by a new language of aid, policies and procedures established in Europe and USA and leaving poor women behind.
