 Non-Government Organizations
Organizations that are independent of any government's involvement are
called Non-governmental organizations. These organizations are also known
as NGOs.

A non-governmental organization (NGO) is a non-profit, citizen-based group

that functions independently of government. NGOs, sometimes called civil
societies, are organized on community, national and international levels to
serve specific social or political purposes, and are cooperative, rather than
commercial, in nature.

A non-governmental organization (NGO) is a citizen-based association that

operates independently of government, usually to deliver resources or serve
some social or political purpose. NGOs are a subgroup of all organizations
founded by citizens, which include clubs and other associations that provide
services, benefits, and premises only to its members.
These areas included:

•Optimal utilization and development of renewable source of energy, including

forestry through the formation of renewable energy association at the block level.

in the field.

sustainable competitive advantage in their market space. This required local
NGOs to be proactive in continuously seeking to improve their human

organizational culture ensures the strategic integration and adoption of HR
practices to make sure employee potential is harnessed and develop for the
benefit of both the individual and organization.
