Abstract

In this brief paper-an abridged version of the paper presented at the 1996 DSA Conference-I have outlined a sceptical view of the idea of institutional development, particularly as it has applied to the development of NGOs-both intermediary and service delivery NGOs. An alternative and beneficiary-biased definition of institutional development is proposed. The practical implications for the application of this view are examined both from the point of view of donors and funded NGOs. The paper draws upon my experience of working with NGOs in Bangladesh, India and East Africa over the last three years. It also incorporates comments by representatives of UK NGOs who attended the ODA-BOND-CDS Workshop Institutional Strengthening of Southern NGOs: What role for Northern NGOs?, held at the University of Wales, Swansea, in July 1996. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
