Role of NGOs in Education for All

Abstract

One of the critical issues in implementing any national or global strategy of education for all would be the kind of role that NGOs are called upon to play and end up playing. In the last decade non-governmental organisations have emerged as an important actor in the development arena in most countries of the South. In order to understand the potential of NGOE in playing certain types of roles, we need to also understand the kinds of NGOs that we are talking about in the Asian context, and more particularly South Asian context.
