Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) Analysis

Direct Relief ranks high among Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) popular for using humanitarian aid in providing help for afflicted populations while finding solutions to their political problems. Over the years, the organization has made the provision of humanitarian aid its primary objective while also viewing it as a conduit through which various levels of conflict across the world can be quelled. Presently, its reach beyond the United States is extensive and is present in more than 81 countries. One of the reasons why it covers such an expanse has mainly to do with its dedication to achieving all its objectives while, at the same time, reaching a much larger demography. It’s vital to acknowledge that Direct Relief’s mission also doubles up as its main driving force in a world where conflict remains prevalent. Poverty and poor health care are seen as a major cause of human misery, with the NGO dedicating it’s time and resources in countries and localities where they are prevalent. Moreover, over the years, the organization has been successful in carrying out case studies that seem to suggest that there is a direct relationship between these two states and the presence of conflict in a country ("Direct Relief | Humanitarian Medical Aid," n.d.). The organization, therefore, seeks to do all that is within its mandate to provide humanitarian aid to those who might require it the most while working towards ensuring that it never occurs again.Direct Relief plays an integral role in the world today and is still hailed for assisting thousands of people around the world. One of its unique features is that it provides this aid using a non-partisan disposition, allowing it to reach persons from all walks of life. Furthermore, Direct Relief also acts as a force for good since it seeks to find the cause of conflict while proving solutions that would enable nations avoid strife, providing a conducive environment for the larger population. Apart, from this, the organization also seeks to assist countries in establishing programs centered on the prevention of diseases, preparedness and capacity building to ensure that there is sustainable growth across the board.

Candance response to Nathan Post

Hi Nathan,

Thank you for the detailed response in this forum. I learned so much about the Direct Relief. Humanitarian driven organizations always seem to get the green light from so many nations. It is also amazing to see when they do not get the approval that most think they should get. There are many people that believe our global ecosystem is minimally affected by humans. Unfortunately, a couple of those people are world leaders. This can sometimes cause friction between government and citizen. If you were a world leader, would you invest in this entity? What true benefits would this association bring to your nation? I believe these entities are needed to remind us of humanity. It is so easy to get comfortable in our world and issues that we do not stop to think how someone else is being affected in their day-to-day life. Once again, good post.
