| Abstract title: | NGOs: ladles in the global soup kitchen? |
| Author: | Stephen Commins |
| Issue: | Volume 9, Number 5 1999 |
The author argues that Northern NGOs are increasingly moulding themselves in the image of, and accepting the impetus of governments to become, a delivery service for global welfare. Commins believes that NGOs can, and should, avoid this by reassessing themselves on a variety of levels, including where they fit in complex emergency situations and how the new vocal presence of Southern NGOs presents a challenge for their role.
