Role of NGOs

In hel'in" the 'oor to cli#b out of 'overty& NGOs use two a''roaches*

Su''lyAside icroAtas!s

Fro# the su''lyAside or #icroAtas!s a''roach& NGOs 'rovide various basic 'ublic services

to the 'oor$

It is ar"ued that es'ecially in countries where "overn#ent lac! 'ublic services& NGOs 'lay a

si"nificant role in the direct 'rovision of social and econo#ic services$

In "eneral& NGOs e#er"e and 'lay the roles as service 'roviders$

8e#andAside acroAtas!s 9he de#andAside NGOs 'lay indirect roles$ 9he de#andAside role of NGOs can be seen as

bein" an articulator of the 'eo'le:s Evoice:$

NGOs #obili>e and clarify the de#and for services& fro# both the "overn#ent and the

#ar!et& so that the 'eo'le are able to achieve its develo'#ent "oals$


33/40

In line of these a''roach& NGOs have develo'ed various strate"ies to

influence the 'rocess of 'ublic 'olicy #a!in" and to control the

i#'le#entation of develo'#ent 'ro"ra#s or 'ro%ects$

$on+l#!ion

9hou"h India shows a hi"h econo#ic "rowth& it is sha#eful that there is

still lar"e scale 'overty in India$

India has the world4s lar"est nu#ber of 'oor 'eo'le livin" in a sin"le

country$

Poverty in India can be defined as a situation when a certain section of

'eo'le are unable to fulfill their basic needs$

@un"er& #alnutrition and susce'tibility of 'oor to natural disasters #a!e

the# ta!e u' anti national and anti social activities

It is the duty of the "overn#ents in 'articular and all citi>ens in "eneral to

try their best to alleviate 'overty to establish har#ony and 'eace in the

societies and in the world$
