1. Watch the video
2. Retrieve information from a specific NGO linked here on this page. Which NGO did you choose? Write down how they work, with whom they work and what their aims and goals are.
3. Write a paragraph on how NGOs differ from governmental organizations and institutions.
4. Create your own Padlet along with another student on www.padlet.com. Register with either mail or Facebook. Create your own NGO by making a name, a slogan, a description of your NGO (what type of orientation and level of operation?), of what you do (ex. provide food during humanitarian emergencies?), how you work (voluntary work/donations?) and what your goals are (ex. provide self-sustainability for a specific region in Afghanistan). Finally, take a picture with your colleague/volunteer from your NGO and post it on your new Padlet page. When you are done, post a link to your Padlet page in the ITL "NGO" room. Make sure that your Padlet is "public".

A non-governmental organization (NGO) is any non-profit, voluntary citizens' group which is organized on a local, national or international level. Task-oriented and driven by people with a common interest, NGOs perform a variety of service and humanitarian functions, bring citizen concerns to Governments, advocate and monitor policies and encourage political particpation through provision of information. Some are organized around specific issues, such as human rights, environment or health. They provide analysis and expertise, serve as early warning mechanisms and help monitor and implement international agreements. Their relationship with offices and agencies of the United Nations system differs depending on their goals, their venue and the mandate of a particular institution.
