Non-Government Organisations (NG0s) which support education in Africa may use different titles such as Council or Trust, are almost always Non-profit organizations. They differ in size, ranging from small local organisations through to large internal multinationals. When founded they will often reflect the ideas, objectives and views of their founders. Funds for new NGOs especially smaller organisations were, and still are, likely to come from supporters, small charities and foundations. Their activities are likely to focus either on specific areas for example village schools or supporting specific causes such as school children with disabilities. Funding for many NGOs has changed significantly from their early years. Many now receive large proportions of their funding from governments. However many NGOs perceive their work to be guided by the principals of neutrality and impartiality. Governments however may view the NGO education programmes they fund as being part of a “counter insurgency strategy” or as one of their “combat teams”. Governments and international funders such as the European Union often now prefer to support consortia where a number of NGOs and multilateral organisations join together to work on a single project. There are significant benefits but also some significant problems.

非政府组织在支持非洲教育中的作用

支持非洲教育的非政府组织（NG0）可能使用不同的名称，例如理事会或信托基金会，它们几乎都是非营利组织。它们的规模各不相同，从小型本地组织到大型内部跨国公司。成立后，他们通常会反映创始人的想法，目标和观点。为新的非政府组织，特别是较小的组织提供的资金过去而且现在仍可能来自支持者，小型慈善机构和基金会。他们的活动可能集中在乡村学校等特定领域，或支持残疾学生等特定原因。自成立以来，许多非政府组织的资金已经发生了巨大变化。现在，许多国家从政府那里获得了很大一部分资金。但是，许多非政府组织认为其工作受中立和公正原则的指导。但是，各国政府可能会将其资助的非政府组织教育计划视为“反叛乱战略”的一部分或作为其“战斗队”之一。各国政府和欧洲联盟等国际资助者现在通常倾向于支持财团，在财团中，许多非政府组织和多边组织共同参与一个项目。有很多好处，但也有一些重大问题。各国政府和欧洲联盟等国际资助者现在通常倾向于支持财团，在财团中，许多非政府组织和多边组织共同参与一个项目。有很多好处，但也有一些重大问题。各国政府和欧洲联盟等国际资助者现在通常倾向于支持财团，在财团中，许多非政府组织和多边组织共同参与一个项目。有很多好处，但也有一些重大问题。
