NGO stands for Non-Governmental Organization. It is a term used to describe organizations that are independent of government control and are typically driven by the interests of their members and supporters. NGOs operate for various purposes, such as humanitarian aid, environmental protection, human rights advocacy, development work, and more. They play crucial roles in society by filling gaps where governments may not be able to reach or provide sufficient resources, often working at local, national, and international levels to address pressing social issues and promote positive change. Examples of well-known NGOs include Amnesty International, Oxfam, Doctors Without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontières), and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
