Factors affecting the success of development projects of the non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Jordan
Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) face many challenges that vary depending on the different countries they operate in. Many of these organizations’ projects fail in the early stages. This study examines the effect of four factors (organizational structure, organizational culture, funding, and community participation) on the success of development projects among NGOs in Jordan. Data were collected from a sample of 181 employees from the 45 active NGOs in Jordan using a questionnaire. Results showed that respondents consider three out of the four factors are significant and affect the project success. However, community participation has been considered insignificant. The study provides several recommendations to the local authorities, NGOs and donors such as finding reliable and stable funding and involving the community in the decision-making process. Taking recommendations into consideration will increase the NGOs efficiency, performance, success and chances in remaining active and fully running.
