Mapping the contribution of faith-based organizations to the Sustainable Development Goals : a case study of World Relief KenyaMutie, Rogers Kyalo 05 1900 (has links)
The Sustainable Development Goals SDGs were adopted in 2015. The contribution of FBOs in their achievement is however, not properly recognised owing partly to the historical perception of FBOs as peripheral rather than core development actors. Using the case study of one FBO in Kenya, this study examined the relevance of FBOs’ development work to the SDGs. Using Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) and a literature review for data collection, the study found that: FBOs possess a dual identity (faith and development). The faith identity gives them some comparative advantages over secular counterparts in engaging local faith communities; there was a direct link between the FBOs’ work and the SDGs. The case study organisation directly contributed to six of the 17 SDGs; the FBOs’ knowledge on SDGs and their engagement with SDG forums were found to be limited. The study recommends a renewed attention to FBOs work and more studies to increase evidence on the FBOs’ role and impact on SDGs. / Development Studies / M.A. (Development Studies)

[pt] A CONTRIBUIÇÃO DO DESIGN GRÁFICO PARA PROMOVER A PARTICIPAÇÃO CIDADÃ EM REDES SOCIAIS DIGITAIS ATRAVÉS DAS ORGANIZAÇÕES DA SOCIEDADE CIVIL NO MÉXICO / [es] LA CONTRIBUCIÓN DEL DISEÑO GRÁFICO PARA PROMOVER LA PARTICIPACIÓN CIUDADANA EN LAS REDES SOCIALES DIGITALES A TRAVÉS DE LAS ORGANIZACIONES DE LA SOCIEDAD CIVIL EN MÉXICO / [en] THE CONTRIBUTION OF GRAPHIC DESIGN TO PROMOTE CITIZEN PARTICIPATION IN DIGITAL SOCIAL NETWORKS THROUGH CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS IN MEXICO24 May 2021 (has links)
[pt] As redes sociais digitais apresentam novas possibilidades de ação dentro do campo do design gráfico. Uma delas é incentivar novas formas de participação cidadã em interesses civis e sociais através das ORGANIZACOES DA SOCIEDADE CIVIL (OSC) no México. O espaço digital,transformou a forma de comunicação em um locus democrático que demanda conceitualizações sintetizadas nos processos de comunicação visual e que, pelas características das redes sociais digitais, permite a hiperconetividade, junto sobre-informação da mídia. As informações competem umas com as outras pela atenção dos usuários graças a rapidez e a indexação dos motores de busca. No caso do facebook, a carga visual impera, devendo provocar ao cidadão com a finalidade de que pare seu tour na rede e enxergue, leia para se sensibilizar, se conscientizar, e, sobre tudo, para ser participante através da interação, primeiro no espaço on-line, com o potencial de participar no espaço off-line, a fim de gerar ações coletivas para a mudança. Sob esta premissa, a presente pesquisa parte de um estudo exploratório de corte qualitativo. Para a exploração foi escolhido /selecionaram as OSC s focadas no tema da segurança publica, particularmente o facebook como rede social digital, e o design gráfico que pressupõe uma ação transformadora na sociedade para um bem comum. Cada um dos atores interpretam um papel, as OSC s geram os conteúdos, o facebook éa mídia e o design gráfico concretiza para comunicar o cidadão. A tese apresenta um olhar de acrônimoque inicia com uma aproximação teórica das OSC s no México, para dar seguimento para a sua conformação histórica entrelaçada com a contribuição do design gráfico, desde o seu material original, permitindo evidenciar o seu papel, valor de identidade cultural neste espaço no país. Assim mesmo, uma revisão teórica é apresentada
sobre as diferentes questões do design gráfico no âmbito social. A partir do marco teórico, uma pesquisa é realizada com um olhar sincrônico, ou melhor, uma fotografia do momento, baseada em entrevistas com uma seleção de organizações da sociedade civil (dedicadas ao tema da segurança publica) e recopilações de imagens publicadas nos perfis do facebook de ditas organizações, durante o período de 2015 - 2016, com o objetivo de realizar um estudo e organizar certas categorias de analise gráficabaseadas nas características da mídia e referenciadas com o mar co teórico. Isto para detectar uma seria de aproximações que contribuem para novas praticas e contextos do design social. Da mesma maneira é questionado se a conexão imagem-cidadã permite criar uma seria de reações para promover a participação cidadã. Nesse trabalho um exercício de observação éapresentado a categorização e analise a fim de estabelecer o potencial do vinculo entre do design gráfico e as OSC s no espaço digital do facebook. / [en] The digital social networks present new possibilities of action in the field of graphic design to foment new forms in the citizen participation in civic and social interests through the Organizations of the Civil Society (OSC) in Mexico. The digital space transformed the form of communication into a democratic space that demands synthesized conceptualizations of graphic design in the processes of visual communication, and which, due to the characteristics of digital social networks, allows hyper connectivity, along with media over-information. The information competes with each other for the attention of users, along with the speed and indexation of search engines (which make it easy to reach users). In the case of Facebook, the visual burden prevails, this should provoke the citizen: stop, look, see, read to raise awareness, become aware, to be a participant through interaction, first in online space, with the potential to participate in the off-line space, in order to generate collective actions for change. Under this premise, the research starts from an exploratory qualitative study. For its exploration were chosen::the CSOs focused on the issue of public safety, Facebook as a social digital network, and graphic design that presupposes a transforming a common good. Each of the actors plays a role: CSOs generate content, Facebook is the medium and graphic design concretizes to communicate to the citizen. The thesis presents a diachronic view that begins with a theoretical approach of the CSOs in Mexico, to give way to their historical conformation interlaced with the contribution of graphic design: original material that allows to show its role, identity and cultural value in this space in the country. Also, a theoretical review
is presented on the different issues of graphic design in the social field. From the theoretical framework, a synchronous look at the state-of-the-art based on interviews with a selection of civil society organizations (dedicated to the topic of public safety) and compilations of images published in the Facebook profiles of the organizations selected during the period 2015-2016, to carry out a study based on categories of graphic analysis based on the characteristics of the medium and referenced to the theoretical framework to evidence a series of approaches that contribute to new praxisand contexts of social design. It is also questioned whether the image-citizen connection allows creating a series of reactions to promote citizen participation. This research presents an exercise in observation, categorization and analysis in order to establish the potential of the link between graphic design and CSOs in Facebook s virtual space. / [es] Las redes sociales digitales presentan nuevas posibilidades de acción dentro del campo del diseño gráfico.

Vzdělávání seniorů v organizacích občanské společnosti v České republice / Education of Seniors in Civil Society Organizations in the Czech RepublicMatějková, Tereza January 2014 (has links)
Organisations of different type and legal status engage in senior education in the Czech Republic. Civil society organisations available online are not the dominant providers of educational courses and activities for seniors in the Czech Republic. Civil society organisations represent 17 % of all providers of educational courses available online. Six civil society organisations engaged in senior education were found in the region Vysočina. Participants of the educational courses consider all activities practised in these courses to be education because they learn new skills there. They appreciate these courses for the education itself, for meaningful free time spending and for the opportunity of active life even in the time of senescence. For nearly the most important point considered by the participants so as the organisators is connecting and broadening of social contacts of the participants and creating of social network. This can be considered for the most distinct manifestation of civil society concerning senior education.

Challenges and potentials of channeling local philanthropy towards development and aocial justice and the role of waqf (Islamic and Arab-civic endowments) in building community foundationsDaly, Marwa El 16 May 2012 (has links)
Diese Arbeit bietet eine solide theoretische Grundlage zu Philanthropie und religiös motivierten Spendenaktivitäten und deren Einfluss auf Wohltätigkeitstrends, Entwicklungszusammenarbeit und einer auf dem Gedanken der sozialen Gerechtigkeit beruhenden Philanthropie. Untersucht werden dafür die Strukturen religiös motivierte Spenden, für die in der islamischen Tradition die Begriffe „zakat“, „Waqf“ oder im Plural auch „awqaf-“ oder „Sadaqa“ verwendet werden, der christliche Begriff dafür lautet „tithes“ oder „ushour“. Aufbauend auf diesem theoretischen Rahmenwerk analysiert die qualitative und quantitative Feldstudie auf nationaler Ebene, wie die ägyptische Öffentlichkeit Philanthropie, soziale Gerechtigkeit, Menschenrechte, Spenden, Freiwilligenarbeit und andere Konzepte des zivilgesellschaftlichen Engagements wahrnimmt. Um eine umfassende und repräsentative Datengrundlage zu erhalten, wurden 2000 Haushalte, 200 zivilgesellschaftliche Organisationen erfasst, sowie Spender, Empfänger, religiöse Wohltäter und andere Akteure interviewt. Die so gewonnen Erkenntnisse lassen aussagekräftige Aufschlüsse über philanthropische Trends zu. Erstmals wird so auch eine finanzielle Einschätzung und Bewertung der Aktivitäten im lokalen Wohltätigkeitsbereich möglich, die sich auf mehr als eine Billion US-Dollar beziffern lassen. Die Erhebung weist nach, dass gemessen an den Pro-Kopf-Aufwendungen die privaten Spendenaktivitäten weitaus wichtiger sind als auswärtige wirtschaftliche Hilfe für Ägypten. Das wiederum lässt Rückschlüsse zu, welche Bedeutung lokale Wohltätigkeit erlangen kann, wenn sie richtig gesteuert wird und nicht wie bislang oft im Teufelskreis von ad-hoc-Spenden oder Hilfen von Privatperson an Privatperson gefangen ist. Die Studie stellt außerdem eine Verbindung her zwischen lokalen Wohltätigkeits-Mechanismen, die meist auf religiösen und kulturellen Werten beruhen, und modernen Strukturen, wie etwa Gemeinde-Stiftungen oder Gemeinde-„waqf“, innerhalb derer die Spenden eine nachhaltige Veränderung bewirken können. Daher bietet diese Arbeit also eine umfassende wissenschaftliche Grundlage, die nicht nur ein besseres Verständnis, sondern auch den nachhaltiger Aus- und Aufbau lokaler Wohltätigkeitsstrukturen in Ägypten ermöglicht. Zentral ist dabei vor allem die Rolle lokaler, individueller Spenden, die beispielsweise für Stiftungen auf der Gemeindeebene eingesetzt, wesentlich zu einer nachhaltigen Entwicklung beitragen könnten – und das nicht nur in Ägypten, sondern in der gesamten arabischen Region. Als konkretes Ergebnis dieser Arbeit, wurde ein innovatives Modell entwickelt, dass neben den wissenschaftlichen Daten das Konzept der „waqf“ berücksichtigt. Der Wissenschaftlerin und einem engagierten Vorstand ist es auf dieser Grundlage gelungen, die Waqfeyat al Maadi Community Foundation (WMCF) zu gründen, die nicht nur ein Modell für eine Bürgerstiftung ist, sondern auch das tradierte Konzept der „waqf“ als praktikable und verbürgte Wohlstätigkeitsstruktur sinnvoll weiterentwickelt. / This work provides a solid theoretical base on philanthropy, religious giving (Islamic zakat, ‘ushour, Waqf -plural: awqaf-, Sadaqa and Christian tithes or ‘ushour), and their implications on giving trends, development work, social justice philanthropy. The field study (quantitative and qualitative) that supports the theoretical framework reflects at a national level the Egyptian public’s perceptions on philanthropy, social justice, human rights, giving and volunteering and other concepts that determine the peoples’ civic engagement. The statistics cover 2000 households, 200 Civil Society Organizations distributed all over Egypt and interviews donors, recipients, religious people and other stakeholders. The numbers reflect philanthropic trends and for the first time provide a monetary estimate of local philanthropy of over USD 1 Billion annually. The survey proves that the per capita share of philanthropy outweighs the per capita share of foreign economic assistance to Egypt, which implies the significance of local giving if properly channeled, and not as it is actually consumed in the vicious circle of ad-hoc, person to person charity. In addition, the study relates local giving mechanisms derived from religion and culture to modern actual structures, like community foundations or community waqf that could bring about sustainable change in the communities. In sum, the work provides a comprehensive scientific base to help understand- and build on local philanthropy in Egypt. It explores the role that local individual giving could play in achieving sustainable development and building a new wave of community foundations not only in Egypt but in the Arab region at large. As a tangible result of this thesis, an innovative model that revives the concept of waqf and builds on the study’s results was created by the researcher and a dedicated board of trustees who succeeded in establishing Waqfeyat al Maadi Community Foundation (WMCF) that not only introduces the community foundation model to Egypt, but revives and modernizes the waqf as a practical authentic philanthropic structure.
