About NGOs

What Is a Non-Governmental Organization?

A Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) is an independent, nonprofit organization that operates separately from direct government control. NGOs may focus on humanitarian assistance, education, governance, environmental protection, advocacy, community development, or public policy engagement.

These organizations range from small community-based initiatives to internationally recognized institutions that support research, public education, humanitarian coordination, and social development efforts.
