This course investigates the expanding role of Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in the creation and implementation of public policy at a global level. First examining the evolution of international NGOs from service providers to significant actors on the policy stage, the course then analyzes the organizations themselves, with particular emphasis on the diversity of organizations, the types of activity in which they are engaged, and how their structures and activities have combined to increase their role in global governance.
