The article explores issues of the Polish refugee reception policy from the perspective of frontline workers: officials, citizen volunteers, and NGO workers at reception centers. It presents conclusions from the research of two Warsaw reception points established by the Voivode of Mazowsze in the beginning of the Ukraine war crisis in 2022. Looking at reception policy from the perspective of frontline workers and examining institutional frameworks (policy goals, regulations and norms) as entry conditions for various actors to collaborate, the article concludes that actions taken by the state authorities in the first weeks of crisis were an example of the responsibilization practices. Insights from the research can be helpful for the Multilevel Governance scholars to better understand the impact of top-down policy on the process of service delivery and problems of collaboration between actors at the local level of policy implementation.
文章从一线工作人员(官员、公民志愿者和接待中心的非政府组织工作人员)的角度探讨了波兰难民接待政策的问题。文章介绍了对马佐夫舍省在 2022 年乌克兰战争危机初期设立的两个华沙接待点的研究结论。文章从一线工作人员的视角审视接待政策,并研究了作为各行为体合作准入条件的制度框架(政策目标、法规和规范),得出结论认为,国家当局在危机最初几周采取的行动是责任化实践的一个范例。研究的启示有助于多层次治理学者更好地理解自上而下的政策对服务提供过程的影响,以及地方层面政策实施过程中各行为体之间的合作问题。

As a relatively stable democracy, Ghana has long been a popular country for international donors. However, recent changes in its classification by the World Bank and government proclamations have led to a reduction in foreign aid, forcing Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) to confront the financial sustainability of their organizations. In this study, we test the typology proposed by Arhin et al. (2018. “Facing the Bullet? Non-Governmental Organisations’ (NGOs’) Responses to the Changing Aid Landscape in Ghana.” Voluntas: International Journal of Voluntary and Nonprofit Organizations 29 (2): 348–60) which finds that CSOs in Ghana are using six different strategies to work toward financial sustainability. Based on an original survey of 42 CSOs, our findings indicate an almost exclusive focus on income generation in the form of social enterprises. The challenges this poses to the sector are discussed.
加纳是一个相对稳定的民主国家,长期以来一直受到国际捐助者的青睐。然而,世界银行最近对其分类的改变以及政府的声明导致外国援助减少,迫使民间社会组织(CSO)面对其组织的财务可持续性问题。在本研究中,我们对 Arhin 等人(2018."面对子弹?非政府组织(NGO)对加纳不断变化的援助形势的回应"。Voluntas:Voluntas: International Journal of Voluntary and Nonprofit Organizations 29 (2):Voluntas: International Journal of Voluntary and Nonfit Organizations 29 (2): 348-60),发现加纳的民间社会组织正在使用六种不同的策略来努力实现财务可持续性。基于对 42 个民间社会组织的原始调查,我们的研究结果表明,几乎所有的民间社会组织都把重点放在以社会企业的形式创收上。本文讨论了这给该部门带来的挑战。

How Do Nonprofits’ Organizational Characteristics Shape Environmental Philanthropy in Texas? A Network Science Approach 非营利组织的组织特征如何影响得克萨斯州的环境慈善事业?网络科学方法

In efforts to address the far-reaching effects of climate change and associated impacts in communities, research on environmental philanthropy suggests that more resources are being allocated to environmental societal challenges. However, understandings about which environmental nonprofits benefit from these funding flows is limited. This study integrates resource dependency theory with elitism and pluralism perspectives to analyze a network of environmental nonprofits and their funders in Texas. Resource dependency and a network-analytic approaches share underlying relationality principles, and we connect those dots by conceptualizing the funding dynamics in Texas as a network of funder-grantee relations. Drawing on statewide survey data (n = 114), we use a network analysis technique – exponential random graph modeling (ERGM) – to analyze funding allocations in Texas through the organizational attributes of environmental nonprofits, their funder-grantee relations, and their community context. We specifically observe elitism in funding allocations in Texas, which is evident in network effects (preferential attachment) and the focal areas of environmental work. However, we find limited evidence that age or resources of the nonprofit are predictive of funding and the most influential factor determining a funder-grantee relationship is the natural hazard risk of the community served by the nonprofit. Our findings suggest interconnected funding dynamics of pluralism and elitism in the Texas environmental philanthropy landscape, prompting further discussion about the potential synergies of these patterns and the implications for environmental funding practices.
为了应对气候变化的深远影响和对社区的相关影响,有关环境慈善事业的研究表 明,越来越多的资源被用于应对环境社会挑战。然而,人们对哪些非营利性环保组织能从这些资金流中获益的了解却十分有限。本研究将资源依赖理论与精英主义和多元化视角相结合,对德克萨斯州的非营利性环保组织及其资助者网络进行了分析。资源依赖和网络分析方法共享基本的关系原则,我们将德克萨斯州的资金动态概念化为资助者与被资助者的关系网络,从而将这些点连接起来。利用全州调查数据(n = 114),我们使用了一种网络分析技术--指数随机图建模(ERGM)--通过环境非营利组织的组织属性、资助者与受资助者的关系以及社区背景来分析德克萨斯州的资金分配情况。我们特别观察到德克萨斯州资金分配中的精英主义,这在网络效应(优先依附)和环保工作的重点领域中都很明显。然而,我们发现,非营利组织的年龄或资源对资金的预测作用有限,而决定资助者与受资助者关系的最有影响力的因素是非营利组织所服务社区的自然灾害风险。我们的研究结果表明,在得克萨斯州的环境慈善事业中,多元化和精英化的资助动态是相互关联的,这促使我们进一步讨论这些模式的潜在协同作用以及对环境资助实践的影响。

Abstract Representation is an important role of the nonprofit sector as these organizations can give voice to the priorities of their constituents. This is particularly important for disadvantaged communities that may lack access to traditional democratic processes. What advocacy tactics are most utilized by nonprofit organizations serving disadvantaged populations? Given variation in nonprofit advocacy tactics, which tactics are perceived as most effective? To answer these questions, we look to the framework of tactical repertoires from sociological studies of social movements. Analysis of a survey of New England nonprofits (N = 656, 55 % response rate) indicates that nonprofits serving disadvantaged populations use similar tactics to organizations advocating for other constituencies but employ them at higher rates. These tactics cluster into three tactical repertoires, each a different combination of advocacy tactics. Perceptions of advocacy effectiveness are associated with the size and nature of tactical repertoires, client participation in advocacy, government funding, and perceptions of the policy environment.
Abstract Representation is an important role of the nonprofit sector as these organizations can give voice to the priorities of their constituents.这对于可能无法参与传统民主进程的弱势群体尤为重要。为弱势群体服务的非营利组织最常用的宣传策略是什么?鉴于非营利组织宣传策略的差异,哪些策略被认为是最有效的?为了回答这些问题,我们借鉴了社会运动社会学研究中的策略再现框架。对新英格兰地区非营利组织的调查分析(N = 656,回复率为 55%)表明,为弱势群体服务的非营利组织使用的策略与为其他群体服务的组织相似,但使用率更高。这些策略可归纳为三种策略,每种策略都是不同的宣传策略组合。对宣传效果的看法与战术组合的规模和性质、客户参与宣传、政府资助以及对政策环境的看法有关。

Environmental Nonprofit Organizations and Public Opinion on Global Warming 非营利性环保组织与公众对全球变暖的看法

Abstract Environmental nonprofit organizations (ENPOs) play a critical role in climate governance. Though ENPOs dedicate significant efforts to advocacy and providing public services, their interaction with public opinion on global warming has not been fully explored. Through multilevel regression analysis on county-level data in the U.S., this article examines the relationship between the presence of ENPOs and public perceptions of global warming, taking into account variations among ENPOs. The findings indicate that: (1) the overall presence of ENPOs is slightly, but not significantly, positively correlated with public perceptions of global warming, with advocacy-oriented ENPOs showing a more robust and statistically significant correlation; (2) there is an inverted-U relationship between the presence of ENPOs and public opinion on global warming, with advocacy-oriented ENPOs reaching tipping points earlier than service-oriented ENPOs; and (3) the partisanship of liberal counties influences this association. This study suggests a potential role for nonprofits in policymaking by interacting with public opinion.
摘要 环境非营利组织(ENPOs)在气候治理中发挥着至关重要的作用。尽管环境非营利组织在宣传和提供公共服务方面付出了巨大努力,但它们与公众对全球变暖的看法之间的互动关系尚未得到充分探讨。本文通过对美国县级数据的多层次回归分析,考察了 ENPO 的存在与公众对全球变暖看法之间的关系,并考虑到了 ENPO 之间的差异。研究结果表明(1)ENPO的总体存在与公众对全球变暖的看法略有正相关,但并不显著,以倡导为导向的ENPO表现出更稳健且统计上显著的相关性;(2)ENPO的存在与公众对全球变暖的看法之间存在倒 "U "型关系,以倡导为导向的ENPO比以服务为导向的ENPO更早达到临界点;(3)自由县的党派性影响了这种关联。这项研究表明,非营利组织可以通过与公众舆论的互动在政策制定中发挥潜在作用。

Abstract Refugee and immigrant nonprofit organizations rely on their volunteers to carry out services that are critical for supporting their mission. The primary aim of this paper is to explore the types of volunteers who support refugee and immigrant nonprofits. We report findings from two independent, but complementary studies. Study 1 examined the individuals who formally volunteered before and during the COVID-19 pandemic at refugee and immigrant nonprofit organizations. In our analysis, we employed a logistic regression to understand to what extent volunteering at refugee and immigrant organizations is associated with demographic characteristics, religiosity, political views, and civic engagement. We compare volunteers assisting refugees and immigrants to volunteers serving other causes and all individuals who volunteer in the US. In Study 2, we aimed to know individuals volunteering for refugees and immigrants more deeply and conducted 15 in-depth semi-structured interviews with volunteers who supported Afghan evacuees between August 2021 and August 2022 through a refugee resettlement organization or a community sponsorship group. Findings from Study 1 indicate that volunteers supporting refugees and immigrants are more likely to be part-time workers, born outside of the US, are more liberal in their political views, and are more likely to be religious than volunteers who serve other organizations. Results from Study 2 show that volunteers were not new to volunteering for refugee and immigrant causes, were often motivated by personal or family experiences with migration or displacement and were affiliated with a congregation or synagogue. Volunteers showed that they went beyond traditional resettlement support that focused on providing immediate needs and were also active in political advocacy for refugees and immigrants. We conclude by providing exploratory insight into the individuals that support refugee and immigrant nonprofits and we offer practice implications relating to sustaining this unique group of volunteers.
摘要 难民和移民非营利组织依靠志愿者提供服务,这对支持其使命至关重要。本文的主要目的是探讨支持难民和移民非营利组织的志愿者类型。我们报告了两项独立但互补的研究结果。研究 1 考察了在 COVID-19 大流行之前和期间在难民和移民非营利组织中正式提供志愿服务的个人。在分析中,我们采用了逻辑回归法,以了解在难民和移民组织中提供志愿服务在多大程度上与人口特征、宗教信仰、政治观点和公民参与有关。我们将援助难民和移民的志愿者与服务于其他事业的志愿者以及所有在美国从事志愿服务的个人进行了比较。在研究 2 中,我们旨在更深入地了解为难民和移民提供志愿服务的个人,并对在 2021 年 8 月至 2022 年 8 月期间通过难民安置组织或社区赞助团体为阿富汗疏散人员提供支持的志愿者进行了 15 次深入的半结构式访谈。研究 1 的结果表明,与服务于其他组织的志愿者相比,支持难民和移民的志愿者更有可能是兼职工作者,出生在美国之外,政治观点更自由,更有可能信教。研究 2 的结果显示,为难民和移民事业提供志愿服务的志愿者并不是新手,他们的动机通常来自于个人或家庭的移民或流离失所经历,并且隶属于某个教会或犹太教堂。志愿者们表现出,他们超越了传统的以提供即时需求为重点的安置支持,也积极参与到难民和移民的政治宣传活动中。最后,我们对支持难民和移民非营利组织的个人进行了深入探讨,并就如何维持这一独特的志愿者群体提出了实践建议。

An increasing number of philanthropic organizations (inter alias, POs) are contributing to the implementation of the 2030 Agenda and its 17 SDGs and are involved with the multi-stakeholder process at the UN and other international Organisations. POs’ interest in participating in the SDG process has over the years increased due to the multiple crises that the world has to face caused by pandemics, war, food insecurity, poverty, and climate change. The interventions of POs are in general greatly appreciated but also questioned by some Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) who have some reservations about the intentions of POs. Within the family of UN agencies, several International Organizations (IOs) welcome POs and provide mechanisms of engagement (UN, UNDESA, UNDP, WHO). Some POs are taking part in the implementation of the SDGs and the related UN processes and are creating intermediary actors or organizations and platforms for greater scale and impact. Some POs are interested in creating a joint representation at the UN in the High-Level Political Forum (HLPF). This new development is the subject matter of this short commentary.
越来越多的慈善组织(又称 POs)正在为 2030 年议程及其 17 项可持续发展目标的实 施做出贡献,并参与联合国和其他国际组织的多方利益相关者进程。多年来,由于大流行病、战争、粮食不安全、贫困和气候变化造成的多重危机,参与组织对参与可持续发展目标进程的兴趣与日俱增。参与组织的干预措施总体上受到高度赞赏,但也受到一些民间社会组织(CSO)的质疑,它们对参与组织的意图持保留意见。在联合国机构大家庭中,一些国际组织(IOs)欢迎参与组织并提供了参与机制(联合 国、联合国经济和社会事务部、联合国开发计划署、世界卫生组织)。一些参与组织正在参与可持续发展目标的实施和相关的联合国进程,并正在创建中间行为者或组织和平台,以扩大规模和影响。一些参与组织有兴趣在联合国高级别政治论坛(HLPF)建立联合代表机构。这一新的发展是本短评的主题。
