2017

Masteroppgave velferdsstudier ME509 - Universitetet i Agder 2017 Formålet med denne oppgaven er å få en forståelse for de som kommer til Norge, samtidig å tilby norske lesere å se hvordan «de andre» ser dem som vert og hvordan det er å velge å være gjest på et sted som de har valgt å kalle «et hjem».

Social innovation in a post-conflict setting : examining external factors affecting social service NGOs

2021

While the study of the influence of external environmental factors on non-governmental organizations (NGOs) is well explored in the international development literature, the importance of these factors on NGOs’ transformative roles in a post-conflict development setting remains less understood. Nevertheless, external environmental factors could have a crucial impact on NGOs in such a context, especially when NGOs want to integrate a socially innovative approach into the social services they provide. Using survey data of staff members of social service NGOs from post-conflict Bosnia and Herzegovina (N = 120) and applying resource dependence theory, this study identifies three environmental f…
