NGOs have had an increasingly large access to the Aid For Development budgets in the course of these 10 or 15 last years, because t he execution of programs centred on emergency works financed on public funds, on the reduction of poverty, on ethnic and social integration, etc., has been increasingly confided to them. A report published in 1990 by the World Bank already noted that by then 5,5 billion dollars were forwarded to NGOs. NGOs have therefore become a component of the governments' and great international financial institutions' action. Financially subordinated to them, they are also, of course, subordinated to their action's objectives . The new place given by governments and institutions to the NGOs are founded on a number of basic principles.
Nets serve to recapture persons that fall.
A good net with tight stitches captures everyone in case of a fall, a bad one let pass some disinherited through its loose ends. But the very idea, linked to the contemporary thinking favourable to the market and the economic development and reorganisation, is potentially negative under the light of social thought. The global social policy was the n based upon the principle of inclusion and equity, it also aimed at full employment and the universality of Social Security benefits. Of course, there is no question of a transfer of social budgets to the NGOs. The aim is their reduction, or even their elimination, and to obtain the sums needed especially to deliberately develop corruption in favour of the acceptance of structural adj ustment plans.
