Abstract

This study evaluates factors which influence financial capacity of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) operating in TRB1 Region (Malatya, Elazığ, Bingöl and Tunceli) of Turkey. Because, although the need for CSO activity is higher in less developed regions, the presence of CSOs is more limited in these regions compared to more developed regions. On the other hand, CSOs with higher financial capacity can provide more qualified, effective and sustainable public goods and services in the areas and regions where public institutions and private sector organizations fail. In this sense, existing assumptions about the factors influencing financial capacity of CSOs are noted after reviewing theoretical and empirical studies in the literature. In order to test these assumptions by the sample of CSOs in TRB1 Region of Turkey, primary and secondary sources of data were used. Primary data was collected from a semi-structured and detailed survey research that was applied to organizational leaders (e.g., manager, director and youth representative) of 66 Youth CSOs that operate in the areas of youth, education and sport in TRB1 Region. In addition, secondary data was collected from the database of Directorate General of Relations with Civil Society under T.R. Ministry of Interior. Collected data was evaluated by descriptive statistical method to analyze relationships between dependent and independent variables. The research findings show that factors such as cooperation with external stakeholders, managerial competence and revenue sources have significant influence on the financial capacity of CSOs.
