CCASP INVOLVEMENT OF NGOS IN CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY

process of economic, social and political development. The explosion of NGOs should not be separated

from the trends and changes that have occurred in different fields on local, national and global level.

In contemporary societies, the involvement of NGOs in different fields requires significant time
commitment and substantial financial resources. In these circumstances, it is necessary that NGOs

should focus on creating and nurturing relationships through building local, regional, national and
international coalitions, creating partnerships with the for-profit and governmental sector as well as
increasing dialogue and exchange of information with public institutions.

Another priority should be attracting human resources by organizing campaigns in order to raise public

awareness on the role of NGOs in a democratic society and the importance of volunteering.

Although NGOs are everywhere and have access to different types of resources due to the complex
mixture consisting of alliances and rivalries, businesses and charities, conservatives and radicals (Young

and Dhanda, 2013), it is recommended that they focus on identifying new fundraising formulas and
practices.
