10 Preface Interest in non-governmental organizations (NGOs) operating in the health sector of developing countries is growing rapidly. This is for a variety of reasons. Whilst twenty years ago health development strategies focused on the public sector, there is now increasing recognition of the role that NGOs play in many countries. This acknowledgement of NGOs is coupled with and indeed fed by a growth itself in the numbers of NGOs. Second, the health sector itself in many developing countries is currently undergoing intense scrutiny. Its failure in the last twenty years to make significant sustainable inroads into the low levels of health, together with wider and frequently more ideological concerns and international pressures, has led to challenges to the previously broadly accepted State domination of the health sector. If Primary Health Care was the issue of the 1980s, Health Sector Reform has replaced it in the 1990s. This interest in the configuration of the health sector and the desire for a fresh look at the roles of all the potential actors has confirmed, if not accelerated, an interest in NGOs in the health sector. These previously neglected actors in the health scene are emerging and often being hailed by donors as the vanguard of the way forward. This growing attention to NGOs is not confined to the health sector. Indeed to some degree interest in the health sector has lagged behind that applied to NGOs working in the more general community development fields. This is reflected in the publications that have arisen out of and indeed fed the growing concern with NGOs. There is now a number of journals which either specialize in the NGO sector or particularly encourage contributions related to them. 1 There is also, as the bibliography at the end of the book demonstrates, an ever-expanding range of books on NG0s. 2 However, there are two clear gaps in the literature. First there is still little written which focuses on the specific characteristics of NGOs operating in the health sector. Second, a significant section of the literature focuses primarily on the NGO sector or its individual constituent organizations in isolation from its wider place within the overall health sector. This book attempts to fill that gap, by focusing on NGOs operating in the health sector and on the relationships between health NGOs and the State. Whilst it deliberately avoids specific policy prescriptions, recognizing that policy must be context-specific, it sets out and discusses the main issues that need consideration in the development of policies concerning the role of NGOs in the health sector. Such policies are, in many countries, X
11 Preface XI sadly lacking and yet are clearly critical in such a period of structural change. As such the book is an introductory text aimed at people either working in the government, NGOs or donor agencies who have, or should have, a policy development role. While the book is primarily written for those working in or studying the health sector, it is hoped that a number of the issues cross sectoral boundaries and may be of interest to policymakers in other sectors. A number of themes run through the book. First there is, perhaps selfevidently, a belief that although the NGO sector does have an important role to play in many countries its potential can only be maximized through a critical acceptance and understanding of this potential. There was a period in the mid-1980s when the international policy pendulum swung from disinterest in the NGO sector to the other extreme of enthusiastic and unquestioning suggestions that NGOs provided a general panacea for all the problems of the health sector. We have already referred to the danger of policy blueprints; linked to this is the need for a recognition that each of the many agents in the development of health policy brings a different set of issues and backgrounds to the process. One of the potential consequences of the interest in alternative health care providers advocated by Health Sector Reformers is the danger that the critical need for a cohesive health policy is lost. Within the overall policy development process, we make no apologies for a stance that assumes the need for the development and regulation of such a cohesive policy. We believe that such an overarching framework needs to be set by government, and that in the absence of such a policy the efforts of individual agencies and organizations such as NGOs may not be maximized and indeed may be counter-productive. There are, however, two important caveats to this. First, we recognize that in a number of countries the democratic processes are currently weak and that as a result government may not be accountable to the broader society. This causes difficulties for NGOs in terms of their view of the legitimacy of a government policy, and we recognize that in extreme cases of repressive authoritarian governments NGOs may need as a minimum to keep a distance from such a government. Indeed they may feel a responsibility to the broader public as a source of alternative perspectives which come close to oppositional politics. Whilst such positions are understandable, it is also important that NGOs themselves recognize that their own accountability to the general public may itself be fragile. Indeed the question of NGO accountability is one of the themes of the book. Within the context of this book, we concentrate on situations where there is a degree of democratic accountability within government, albeit one which may require strengthening.
12 xii Preface The second caveat is that government's role as a policy-setter should be built on a process that encourages inputs from non-state organizations including NGOs. Government policy-making in many countries is characterized by introspective and defensive attitudes which fail to recognize the potential importance of alternative views. * * * The book draws on a number of sources. First of all, our own individual interests in the area stem from quite different professional backgrounds. The background of one of us (AG) has been predominantly work within the public health sector in the development of policy and planning systems. This has led to a recognition of the failure of many governments to address the question of their relationship with the NGO sector. In contrast, the other author (AM) has spent a considerable part of her working life in health NGO settings. Second, both have been involved since joining the University of Leeds with teaching, consultancy and research in the area of NGOs. A recently completed research project into the role of NGOs forms part of the material for the book. We also continue to be involved in various projects involving NGOs which provides opportunities for practical experience of the issues we have attempted to cover. Lastly we teach a postgraduate course in the area of NGOs in the health sector. The experience and insights of students from a variety of country and professional backgrounds on this course has been a continuing source of stimulus. It has also been one of the spurs to the production of this book as we realize the lack of suitable literature for students in this area. As such the book covers a broad spread of issues that are considered essential for an understanding of NGOs and health in developing countries. Those interested in pursuing any of these in greater depth are referred to the bibliography at the end of the book. * * * The book is broadly divided into two sections. The first (Chapters 1 to 7) looks at a number of issues facing the NGO health sector. It starts with a review of the history and development of the current situation facing the health sector in developing countries and the position of NGOs within it. Chapter 2 focuses on definitional issues of what is meant by the term NGO. The third chapter addresses the question as to whether NGOs have any comparative advantage over government in the health sector, a critical question for the development of policy. This is followed by two chapters
13 Preface xiii that focus first on international NGOs and then on country-based NGOs. Chapter 6 examines various aspects in the formation of policy by different organizations involved in the health sector including government, NGOs and donor agencies. The first section then concludes with a country case-study. We make no suggestion that Zimbabwe is (or indeed could be) representative of the situation in other countries. Indeed it would be impossible to find any such single representative given the diversity of contexts. However, the case-study is presented in order to illustrate a number of the issues which arise in the first set of chapters. The second half of the book picks up and examines a number of themes. Chapter 8 looks at the question of resourcing NGOs. This is followed in Chapter 9 with an analysis of accountability, a theme to which we have already referred. Chapter 10 focuses on capacity-building in NGOs. The penultimate chapter addresses questions relating to the co-ordination of NGOs and mechanisms for this. The book concludes with a discussion of likely future trends in the area of NGOs and their role in the health sector. Within the book we have attempted to avoid unnecessary jargon and acronyms. However, we have resorted to the use of three acronyms relating to NGOs throughout the book. We use the term NGO to refer to all non-governmental organizations, the term INGO where we refer specifically to International NGOs and CYNGOs to refer to NGOs that operate either at the national or community level within a single country. It is well recognized by both of us that the book raises far more questions than it answers. This, however, is in the nature of the development of policy in new fields. It is hoped that readers will be encouraged themselves to seek answers to these questions in a manner that results in greater cohesion and effectiveness in the health sector. ANDREW GREEN ANN MATTHIAS Notes 1. Examples are Development in Practice and Voluntas. 2. In this book we have referred to a large range of publications, and provided a long bibliography. Some very recent publications in the broad area of NGOs include: Bennett (1995), Edwards and Hulme (eds) (1995), Fowler (1996) and Hulme and Edwards (eds) (1996).
14 Acknowledgements We would like to acknowledge a number of people and organizations who have in one form or another contributed to the completion of this book. First of all, colleagues at the Nuffield Institute and particularly those in the International Division and Information Resource Centre have helped in a variety of ways including ideas, information and general support. Second, we would like to thank staff of the Ministry of Health and the University of Zimbabwe for their collaboration during the field research which forms a part of this book. This research was funded by the UK Government's Overseas Development Administration for which we are grateful, though of course the usual disclaimers concerning the views expressed here apply. Third, we have benefited from ideas and comments from individuals too numerous to mention by name including staff of NGOs and students at the University of Leeds and elsewhere. Five individuals do, however, need mentioning by name. Margaret Kaseje and Sidney Ndeki, both PhD students whose positive criticisms were welcome, and Mike Edwards, Head of Infmmation and Research at Save the Children Fund (SCF) whose comments on an earlier draft were invaluable. Mary Green, of Manchester University, and David Green, of Voluntary Service Overseas, both provided many helpful insights. Lastly we would like to thank both our families for their support during many long weekends and late hours of writing. It has been much appreciated. xiv
