Abstract

The current economic and political crisis has brought about a change in the environment in which non-governmental development organisations (NGDOs) have traditionally operated. This change can be summed up as a reduction in the funds they receive and an increase in the population they must serve. The need then arises to have mechanisms that allow an analysis of the good work performed by the NGDOs. Knowing the efficiency of the NGDOs in the management of their previous projects can contribute towards improving their future achievements. The aim of this research is to establish some objective indicators that allow an evaluation of the efficiency of these organisations. Firstly, a detailed analysis of the regulation of the three agencies is conducted (Spanish-AECID, European-EuropeAid, and American-USAID). This allows us to synthesise the indicators of good performance of the NGDO based on the study of the eligibility criteria of public donors. The research concludes with the study of the efficiency following the Promethee Approach. Our results reveal that 44.6% of the NGDOs (33 out of the 74 studied) operate inefficiently, compared to 29.7%, which are efficient.

非政府组织的效率：PROMETHEE 方法

当前的经济和政治危机改变了非政府发展组织（NGDOs）传统的运作环境。这种变化可以概括为：它们获得的资金减少，必须服务的人口增加。因此，有必要建立机制，对 NGDOs 所做的出色工作进行分析。了解非政府组织在管理其以往项目方面的效率，有助于改善其未来的成就。本研究的目的是制定一些客观指标，以便对这些组织的效率进行评估。首先，我们对三个机构（西班牙-西班牙国际合作发展署、欧洲-欧洲援助署和美国-美国国际开发署）的规章制度进行了详细分析。这样，我们就可以在研究公共捐助者资格标准的基础上，归纳出 NGDO 的良好绩效指标。本研究最后按照普罗米修斯方法对效率进行了研究。研究结果显示，44.6%的非政府发展组织（74 个研究对象中的 33 个）运作效率低下，而 29.7%的非政府发展组织运作效率较高。
