Tóm tắt

Các tổ chức phát triển dựa trên tôn giáo (FBOs) đã được cho là thực hiện các dự án phát triển hiệu quả chi phí hơn so với các tổ chức thế tục thông qua việc tiếp cận độc quyền các mạng lưới tôn giáo, cung cấp nguồn vốn phi tập trung ổn định, tuyển dụng tình nguyện viên, mức lương nhân viên thấp và chi phí hoạt động và gián tiếp thấp hơn. Tuy nhiên, cho đến nay, các phân tích so sánh giữa các tổ chức tôn giáo và thế tục vẫn dựa trên phương pháp nghiên cứu từng trường hợp, giới hạn khả năng tổng quát của các phát hiện. Nghiên cứu này giải quyết khoảng trống phương pháp này bằng cách phân tích hồ sơ Đăng ký Thông tin Tổ chức Từ thiện và các trang web của 844 tổ chức phi chính phủ phát triển Canada để xác định tỷ lệ FBOs và điểm khác biệt tổ chức của họ. Kết quả cho thấy FBOs chiếm 40% trong lĩnh vực tổ chức phi chính phủ ở Canada về số lượng tổ chức và chi tiêu của họ tại các quốc gia đang phát triển, và họ phụ thuộc vào tài trợ liên bang ít hơn một cách đáng kể (p < .1), trả lương cho nhân viên thấp hơn (p < .01), nhưng không có sự khác biệt đáng kể trong chi tiêu cho chi phí hoạt động và chi phí gián tiếp. Do đó, việc tham gia của các FBO Canada trong các mạng lưới tôn giáo hình thành cách thức hoạt động của họ nhưng không dẫn đến một phương thức hoạt động với chi phí thấp hơn so với các tổ chức phi chính phủ thế tục.
