Impact of INGOs and Foreign Sample Clauses

Impact of INGOs and Foreign. Aid By all interviewees, foreign aid is regarded as essential to ensuring the operation of abortion- related services and programs. The way Dai put it, “Without foreign aid, Nepali abortion services would not be self-sustainable”. Xxxxxxxx supported this notion and said, “I would say Nepal is completely dependent on foreign aid because we don’t have people with social and political will that is required … if we looked for resources within Nepal, we would find it”.

Interviewee responses provided further clarification that international autonomy over funds has a direct impact on how abortion services are promoted in Nepal. Given that INGOs administer most of the funding, the way such funds are used and distributed is up to their discretion.

Ultimately, this disadvantages those living in rural areas of Nepal and could hamper access to services. Xxxxxx also explained how Nepali NGOs are not working in family planning as often as they are in abortion, because efforts for abortion were emphasized post-legalization.
