2. • NGOs, or non-governmental organizations, are typically non-
profit organizations that operate independently of any
government. They often focus on specific issues such as health,
education, or human rights. Eg: Nepal Red Cross Society
• CBOs, or community-based organizations, are grassroots
organizations that are usually formed and run by members of a
particular community. They often have a strong connection to
the local culture and can be effective at addressing
community-specific issues.
• INGOs, or international non-governmental organizations, work
across borders and often focus on issues that affect multiple
countries. Eg:Marie Stopes International Nepal (MSIN) ,UK

3. • In terms of community health development, these organizations play
important roles. NGOs often provide funding and expertise for health
programs in areas where governments may not have the resources to
do so. CBOs can help to identify and address health issues that are
specific to a particular community. INGOs can bring together experts
from different countries to share knowledge and resources. For
example, an NGO might fund a program to provide vaccines to
children in a rural area, while a CBO might organize a community
health fair to raise awareness about the importance of regular check-
ups. An INGO might work with governments and other organizations
to develop policies and programs that improve maternal and child
health across multiple countries.

4. • NGOs, CBOs, and INGOs play a vital role in community health
development. They work towards improving access to
healthcare services, providing education on health-related
issues, and promoting healthy behaviors. According to the
World Health Organization, NGOs provide up to 50% of
healthcare services in some countries.
• In the last six decades, the number and presence of INGOs
have considerably grown in Nepal. In the aftermath of the
devastating 2015 earthquakes, many humanitarian INGOs
made their presence in Nepal and contributed to the disaster,
response, and recovery efforts.
