Individuals are more important than NGOs in contributing to the good of society because individuals can respond to more immediate issues that arise and that need help quickly and their issues can be resolved in a shorter period of time before it gets worse while NGOs can only respond to long-term issues and they would not resolve any short term issues that need immediate action.]]> 2021-04-23 02:34:04 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_wen_xin/3bqeyfj74yfog8f6/wish/1450196598 https://padlet.com/ng_wen_xin/3bqeyfj74yfog8f6/wish/1450197883 Common criteria: immediecy of impact

Individuals have a more important role to play in working for the good of society as they can carry out whatever they want to do faster and simpler (smaller-scale, easier to carry out). This allows their impact to be felt sooner. While NGOs require more planning and time to carry out these plans so their impact will be felt later.]]> 2021-04-23 02:34:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_wen_xin/3bqeyfj74yfog8f6/wish/1450197883 https://padlet.com/ng_wen_xin/3bqeyfj74yfog8f6/wish/1450200551 Common criterion: scope / range of impact

NGOs are more important than individuals in contributing to the good of society because NGOs have a greater impact on the good of society since NGOs are a larger group and would have more time and effort devoted to obtain their objectives, thus having a bigger impact on the good of society while individuals usually are a smaller group, this there are less people devoting time and effort to obtain their short term objectives, therefore having a smaller impact on the good of society.]]> 2021-04-23 02:36:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_wen_xin/3bqeyfj74yfog8f6/wish/1450203736 https://padlet.com/ng_wen_xin/3bqeyfj74yfog8f6/wish/1450209727 NGOs have more important roles to play than individuals in working for the good of society because NGOs enable citizens to work together to work together voluntarily to promote social values and civic goals which are important to them.
