Sociální služby v České republice a význam institucí veřejné správy při jejich poskytování / Social Services in the Czech Republic and the Role of Public Institutions in their ProvisionBareš, Pavel January 2013 (has links)
BAREŠ, P. 2013. Social Services in the Czech Republic and the Role of Public Institutions in their Provision. Doctoral Thesis. Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Social Science, Institute of Sociological Studies: Prague. Key words: Czech Republic, municipalities, non-governmental organisations, providers of social services, public administration, public policy, regions, social services, state Abstract: Social services should be perceived as important instrument of the system of social protection in the Czech Republic. The extent of provision of social services by organisation representing different institutional sectors should be considered as key characteristics of this system. Two main groups of organisations should be distinguished in this regard primarily - public and private organisations. However both these broad categories consist of different subjects: state, regional or municipal organisations in the first case and for-profit organisations, entrepreneurs, social enterprises or non-profit organisations in the second. The primary aim of the thesis is to analyse the extent of provision of social services by public organisations (all above mentioned types), however the provision of social services by private organisations has been analysed as well, because this question is complementary to the...

Opportunities for co-operation between informal youth groups and international non-governmental organisations : a case study of Amman and Zarqa in JordanStrub, Juliane 02 1900 (has links)
Text in English / The study focuses on the interaction between two structures in development cooperation:
the bottom-up approach of Informal Youth Groups (IYGs) and the topdown
approach of International Non-Governmental Organisations (INGOs). These
are considered in the theoretical context of the capability approach.
In the empirical study, conducted in the cities of Amman and Zarqa in Jordan, the
researcher interviewed eleven key members of IYGs to analyse their work mechanisms
and criteria for co-operation. A Focus Group Discussion with members of INGOs
about challenges and opportunities in co-operations with IYGs was conducted,
to complement the literature review of INGO perspectives.
The study provides insights into the work mechanism and co-operation criteria of
IYGs. The interviewees mentioned trust between the parties and sharing vision and
motivation as key requirements. Recommendations for INGOs in their work with local
partners and practical steps for supporting IYGs are given. / Development Studies / M.A. (Development Studies)

Ochrana před diskriminací podle Evropské úmluvy o ochraně lidských práv / Protection against Discrimination under the European Convention on Human RightsKonoplia, Oleksandra January 2020 (has links)
The thesis is focused on the examination of the scope of Article 14 of the European Convention of Human Rights, theoretical framework, and legal basis of the concept of discrimination. The paper presents an analysis of the caselaw of the European Court on Human Rights, how the latter operationalises the issue of inequality, and which inaccuracies of interpretation it leaves. The primary aim is to challenge the system of protection against discrimination under the Article 14 as well as the role of the national actors in its development. The thesis examines the level of compliance among signatories of the Convention with its anti- discriminatory provisions and focuses on the individual capacities of the states to satisfy judgements of the European Court on Human Rights. The usage of the comparative approach also helps to analyse the role of local non-governmental organisations in the process of compliance with human rights obligations under the Convention among signatories. The thesis aims to show why the level of protection against discrimination differs from the one country to another and which obstacles they face on the path towards the respect for human rights.

THE CRIMINALISATION OF NGO-LED SAR OPERATIONS : A Contributing Factor Towards Crimes Against Humanity Against Migrants in LibyaKaur, Maanpreet January 2023 (has links)
In the perilous waters of the Mediterranean Sea, migrants find themselves facing limited choices when in distress. Their options are stark: either to rely on the lifesaving efforts of Non- Governmental Organisations (NGO) aid workers conducting Search and Rescue (SAR) Operations, to be intercepted by the Libyan Coast Guard (LCG) and subsequently detained in Libya where their human rights are gravely violated, or to face the tragic fate of perishing at sea. Unfortunately, the criminalisation of SAR Operations, spearheaded by NGO aid workers, hinders the rescue of migrants, thereby exacerbating the risks they face and leaving them vulnerable to interception by the LCG. This interception, as argued in this thesis, inevitably leads to the perpetration of Crimes Against Humanity (CAH) against these vulnerable migrants. This thesis sheds light on the issue of Italy’s increasing criminalisation and vilification of humanitarian aid workers engaged in SAR missions in the Mediterranean Sea. It critically examines the consequences of such criminalisation on the lives and rights of migrants, exploring the complex dynamics between SAR Operations, interception by the LCG, and the commission of CAH. Drawing upon a comprehensive lens of interpretation that integrates legal analysis, human rights principles, and the international legal framework, this study concludes that criminalisation of SAR operations is indeed a contributing factor towards the CAH faced by migrants in Libya. Moreover, it identifies the potential liability of Italian State Officials (ISO) at the International Criminal Court (ICC) for their role in enacting legislations that effectively criminalises SAR operations.

The participation of rural based teachers in community development activities in the Chivi district, Masvingo, ZimbabweNtini, Edmore 30 November 2006 (has links)
Too often, literature on participation in community development is void of the rationale for the participation of teachers; the roles they may play; factors for and against their participation; and strategies for inviting and sustaining their participation. This study examines what could be done to ensure the participation of rural based teachers in community development activities, by exploring these issues. A qualitative design and purposeful sampling are used. The sample consists of information-rich informants from the following five categories: officials of the Rural District Council, non-governmental organisation workers, rural based school teachers, Village Development Committee Chairpersons, and ordinary community members. Interviewing is used as the major instrument of data collection. The study reveals that rural based teachers should participate in community development activities, since they have a wide knowledge base and transferable skills, and they are part of and trusted by the community. It reveals that rural based teachers' participation is deterred by political factors, lack of supportive policies, attitudes, conservativeness, lack of specialized training, and labour issues. Twenty two roles are identified for rural based teachers in community development activities. Strategies for inviting them to participate are: the use of policy, change of attitudes, use of media campaigns, training, and inclusion of community development in tertiary education in general, and teacher education in particular. Strategies for sustaining their participation emerge as: the use of incentives, free time or days off and holding responsible offices. Sixteen recommendations are finally presented. / DEVELOPMENT STUDIES / MA (DEVELOPMENT STUD)

Parents' role in governance: the case of early childhood development centres in MabopaneMbele, Kgoto Jan 10 1900 (has links)
Good governance occupies a centre stage in the development discourse. Since there are currently no guidelines on the practice of good governance for ECD centres, this qualitative study followed the exploratory research approach and employed the case study research
design to gain insight into how ECD centres in Mabopane practiced good governance concerning the roles played by parents in decision-making and accountability. The study used the Social Capital and Stakeholder theoretical frameworks to contextualise the investigation and employed eclectic methodological approaches involving triangulated sampling techniques, data collection methods and tools as well as data sources to generate data. The data were analysed using thematic content analysis and it was found amongst others that there were weaknesses in the governance practices within the ECD centres
regarding parents’ roles in decision-making and accountability. The study recommended, amongst others, for concerted efforts involving all stakeholders to address those flaws. / Development Studies / M.A. (Development Studies)

A critical understanding of the policing of trafficking in personsGeldenhuys, Irma Cornell Haupt 30 August 2017 (has links)
The aim of conducting this research was to obtain a critical understanding of how the South African Police Service (SAPS), law enforcement (LE) and Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) understand the concept, policing of Trafficking in Persons (TIP). The study indicates different role players in the policing of TIP. The researcher explored the present and possible future cooperation between SAPS and NGOs in the Cape Town area. The development of policing and legal aspects concerning TIP was explored globally.
Research indicates the necessity of a professional partnership approach between SAPS, LE and NGOs, in the policing of TIP. The researcher identified factors that inhibit the effectiveness of policing of TIP. These factors include among others the lack of training in the identification of TIP and lack of trust between role players. Recommendations to this effect and the implementation of the policing of TIP are made to all concerned, especially SAPS management. / Police Practice / M. Tech. (Policing)

Finansiële bestuur in die nie-winsgerigte welsynsorganisasieTheron, Shirley Marlene 11 1900 (has links)
Finansiele bestuur word aile~ as die taak van finansiele bestuurskundiges beskou.
By nie-winsgerigte organisasies raak dit egter dikwels die verantwoordelikheid van niefinansiE!
Ie personeel of bestuurslede uit 'n ander opleidingsagtergrond. Maatskaplike
werkers, een van die vemaamste diensprofessies betrokke by nie·w;nsgerigte
welsynsorganisasies, beskik nie noodwendig oor hierdie bestuursvaardighede nie.
Hierdie studie kan bydra tot maatskaplike werkers en ander nie-finansiele personeel
se verbeterde kennis en insig van sleutelaspekte van finansiele bestuur. Dit kan
terselfdertyd ook finansiele bestuurders sensitiseer vir die eiesoortig-gekompliseerde
eise van finansiele bestuur op die terrein van nie-winsgerigtheid, waar die fokus op
diensfewering eerder as finansiile gewin, val.
Dit konseptualiseer algemene bestuursfunksies en finansiele risikofaktore binne die
konteks en eiesoortigheid van nie-winsgerigte flnansiAie bestuur. Hierdie kennis kan
moontlik die gaping tussen die. bestuursvaardighede van finansiele- en nie-finansiele
bestuurders help oorbrug en die sukses en voortbestaan van nie-winsgerigte
welsynsorganisasies bevorder deur die kwaliteit van bestuursinsette te verbeter. / Financial management is commonly regarded to be the field of financial managers. In
the case of non-profit or voluntary organisations it often becomes the responsibility of
non-financial personnel or members of management from other educational
backgrounds. Social workers involved in non-profit organisations rendering welfare
services do not necessarily have the required financial management skills.
This study can provide social workers and other non-financial personnel with
information to better their understanding on key issues concerning financial
management. It can also sensitise financial managers towards the uniquely
complicated demands on financial management in the non-profit environment, where
the focus falls on service delivery rather than on financial gain.
It conceptualises management principles as well as financial risk factors in the distinct
context of non-profitable financial management. This knowledge could probably aid in
bridging the gap between the management skills of financial and non-financial
managers and thus promote the success and sustainabUity of non-profit organisations
by improving the quality of input by management. / Social work / M.Diac. (Maatskaplike werk (Bestruur)
