Description

Non-Governmental Organisations support millions of people facing poverty, natural disasters, wars and other crises. But in recent years, international NGOs have faced increasing scrutiny, with critics asking whether they sometimes do more harm then good. Who decides if a mission has been successful, and do we need a global watchdog for NGOs? This is The Overview.

Presented by Julia O'Driscoll, with The Week's Joe Evans and guests Miriam Bradley, an associate professor at the Barcelona Institute for International Studies, Gabriela Luz, the interim deputy humanitarian director of Oxfam's Global Humanitarian Team, and Dr Gina Yannitell Reinhardt, professor of government at the University of Essex.
