North and South nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) have been “partners” in international development for more than a decade. Studies have documented their approaches and strategies, yet little is still known about how they organize and how their projects help them to achieve their mission. The authors propose a contextualized and historical perspective to better understand how and why NGOs organize by projects, and how this strengthens their strategy and commitment to local development.Article type: Research paperISSN: 8756-9728Reference: 41AC131
