INTERNATIONALLY, AMONG THE many factors which have been
influencing the definition of the content, processes, scope and arenas of
non-government development organization (NGDO) work, the globalization
phenomenon has been the most dominant. The end of the cold war and the crisis of

West, and have contextualized the rise of neoliberalism and capitalism, the
major paradigm which underpinned
globalization.
