An Introduction to Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO) Management


The term, "non-governmental organization" or NGO, came into use in 1945 because of the need
for the UN to differentiate in its Charter between participation rights for intergovernmental
specialized agencies and those for international private organizations. At the UN, virtually all
types of private bodies can be recognized as NGOs. They only have to be independent from
government control, not seeking to challenge governments either as a political party or by a
narrow focus on human rights, non-profit-making and non-criminal. As of 2003, there were
reportedly over 20,000 NGOs active in Iran. The majority of these organizations are charity
organizations, and thus would not fall under the category of development-oriented NGOs. In this
document the term NGO is primarily used for organizations other than charitable organizations.
