 About NGOAustralian NGOs bring particular strengths to the Australian aid program. They mobilise public support and voluntary contributions for aid; they often have strong links with community groups in developing countries and they often work in areas where government-to-government aid is not possible. Many also have particular expertise in providing assistance to meet people's basic needs, particularly in emergency situations where quick and flexible responses are required. Global Development Group is part of the OAGDS (Overseas Aid Gift Deduction Scheme) and works in areas of specialist relief and Humanitarian Aid not covered by some of the larger NGO’s |
Global Development Group is a member of the Australian Council for International Development (ACFID) and a signatory to the ACFID Code of Conduct, which provides standards on management, communication with the public and, most importantly, how funds are spent.
