Citizen Watch And Resources Development
Society
|
Citizen Watch (Cwards) is a non governmental organization that is passionate about the education of poor disadvantaged children & neglected orphans. We give training to youths who are not able to acquire basic education and micro credit to less privileged men and women to start micro enterprise. We commit ourselves to engaging people to transforming lives, by alleviating poverty and confronting its courses in third world nations.
The phrase "non-governmental organization" came into use with the establishment of the United Nations Organization in 1945 with provisions in Article 71 of Chapter 10 of the United Nations Charter for a consultative role for organizations which are neither government nor member states. Nongovernmental organizations are a heterogeneous group. The primary purpose of it is to defend or promote a specific cause. As opposed to operational project management, these organizations typically try to raise awareness, acceptance and knowledge by lobbying, press work and activist events.

NGOs thrive on values and ethics. Social values form the foundation of an NGO's overall mission and strategy. The mission is usually linked to a set of basic, deeply held values, such as respect for the natural environment or aid to the poor. The mission and values inspire people to get involved in the organization while providing a common focus for its activities and goals.

The workforce for non-governmental organizations includes volunteers and Paid staff members. But the pay scales are lower than in the commercial private sector. Employees are highly committed to the aims and principles of the organization. Recently the NGO sector has turned out to be an important player in terms of employing people. So it is emerging as a lucrative option for the people.

NGOs are not legal entities under international law, as states are. An exception is the International Committee of the Red Cross, which is considered a legal entity under international law because it is based on the Geneva Convention. (With inputs from en.wikipedia.org )

Non government organization's activities are extremely diverse. They range from providing education, improving health conditions, providing services to advocacy on issues affecting development. The operational context and related needs of each of these groups is wide ranging. There are a wide variety of tools and techniques that can be used to further progress towards activities of these organizations. As organizations seek out tools and techniques relevant to their specific area, they should gather information about the strengths and weaknesses of each tool and the best suited tool /technique should be adopted.
