“…Many studies proved the initial role of IoC of civil society organizations with governmental organizations in delivering better services specially in health sector (London & Schneider, 2012;Olafsdottir et al, 2014). Filc (2014) mentioned the ontological difference between state health institutions and CSOs specialized in delivering such services, in which the last can decrease the difficulties found in state health care systems specially in weaker welfare states (Gulzar & Henry, 2005;Olafsdottir et al, 2014). Previous studies showed NGOs to have coercive pressure on the firm partners engaged in collaborative relationships with them as a result of having conflicting interests (Baron, 2006;Liu, 2009;Spar & La Mure, 2003), but this insight could be seen in contrast way in which NGOs could be seen as sources of information if they have common areas of interest such as corporate social responsibility with partner firms and may increase firms credibility (Oelze et al, 2016).…”

This study tries to deal with knowledge collaborative approach of relationship learning which is a strategic perspective entails of creating collective knowledge to demonstrate the role of inter-organizational learning through project-based organizations (PBOs). This helps in enhancing the abilities of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in metropolitan areas witnessing duality in the legal framework under which these organizations operate, and how such circumstances affect NGOs operating in autonomous regions to maintain long-term linkages with their partners to achieve sustainable development. Based on a survey conducted from 146 respondents, we have illustrated that inter-organizational learning was significantly associated with building the capacity of NGOs to maintain long term linkages with international partners, as well as its significant relationship with obtaining sustainable performance. Moreover, the value creation has appeared to have a partial mediation role between inter-organizational learning and sustainable performance while legal framework seems to have a significant moderator role in hindering the relationship between interrelation learning and value creation.

“…Unfortunately, emerging evidence suggests that INGOs and their supply chain partners often fail to deliver transformational change (Balboa, ; Gulzar & Henry, ; Shawki, ). For example, a recent analysis by Oxfam suggests that governments targeted by WFC are still skewing investments toward infrastructure projects, private sector initiatives, and more prosperous geographical areas; climate change mitigation is prioritized over adaptation; and there is little evidence of financial resources and technical assistance reaching female farmers (Pearl‐Martinez, ).…”

“…At times, INGOs fail to achieve their goals due to their (supply chain) partners failing to work effectively together (Balboa, ; Gulzar & Henry, ; Shawki, ). Unfortunately, existing supply chain management theory provides an incomplete foundation for describing, understanding, and predicting factors that might enable INGOs to develop and manage supply chains.…”

Governments and global corporations increasingly both confront and rely on international non‐governmental organizations (INGOs) to identify, design, and deliver interventions that prompt transformational change in societies, industries, and supply chains. For INGOs, transformational change is defined as a fundamental, long‐lasting reframing of a social or industrial system through synergistically altering the knowledge, practices, and relationships of multiple stakeholder groups. With each intervention, the focal INGO assembles its own complex supply chain of nonprofit organizations and for‐profit firms to provide the necessary resources and skills. While prior supply chain management literature provides a good starting point, with some generalizability to the nonprofit sector, this study begins with several key differences to explore how interventions are delivered, and then, how INGOs’ supply chains must be aligned. In doing so, at least three critical factors must be taken into account to improve alignment: stakeholder‐induced uncertainty; supply chain configuration; and supply chain dynamism. By synthesizing these factors with prior literature and emerging anecdotal evidence, tentative frameworks and research questions emerge about how INGOs can better leverage their supply chains, thereby offering a basis for scholars in supply chain management to build a much richer and more nuanced research understanding of INGOs.

“…As Chillag et al (2002) point out, community-based organizations are well positioned to deliver such services “because they understand their local communities and are connected to the groups they serve” [6]. Similarly, in response to limited access to health services, community-based organizations also often provide essential primary healthcare (especially for the very poor, women and children) in low- and middle-income countries [7,12]. …”

Community-based organizations are important health system stakeholders as they provide numerous, often highly valued programs and services to the members of their community. However, community-based organizations are described using diverse terminology and concepts from across a range of disciplines. To better understand the literature related to community-based organizations in the health sector (i.e., those working in health systems or more broadly to address population or public health issues), we conducted a scoping review by using an iterative process to identify existing literature, conceptually map it, and identify gaps and areas for future inquiry.We searched 18 databases and conducted citation searches using 15 articles to identify relevant literature. All search results were reviewed in duplicate and were included if they addressed the key characteristics of community-based organizations or networks of community-based organizations. We then coded all included articles based on the country focus, type of literature, source of literature, academic discipline, disease sector, terminology used to describe organizations and topics discussed.We identified 186 articles addressing topics related to the key characteristics of community-based organizations and/or networks of community-based organizations. The literature is largely focused on high-income countries and on mental health and addictions, HIV/AIDS or general/unspecified populations. A large number of different terms have been used in the literature to describe community-based organizations and the literature addresses a range of topics about them (mandate, structure, revenue sources and type and skills or skill mix of staff), the involvement of community members in organizations, how organizations contribute to community organizing and development and how they function in networks with each other and with government (e.g., in policy networks).Given the range of terms used to describe community-based organizations, this scoping review can be used to further map their meanings/definitions to develop a more comprehensive typology and understanding of community-based organizations. This information can be used in further investigations about the ways in which community-based organizations can be engaged in health system decision-making and the mechanisms available for facilitating or supporting their engagement.
