Abstract

This article, based on a plenary lecture given at the First International Conference on Sustainable Management of Public and Not for Profit Organizations held at the University of Bologna, Forli Campus, Italy in July 2009, provides an overview of issues in non-governmental organization (NGO) accountability that are of particular relevance in the current changing global context -- in particular, a context combining economic slowdown and global warming.
