Opening · a definition
CSOs are non-kin, non-state, non-market organisations in society.
Collaboration between State & CSOs → address poverty & malnutrition
Body · points
(1) CSOs → reach last mile where State's reach is less.
(2) Complement state's role in providing services. → eg → community kitchens during covid
(3) Identification of under-served & un-served areas by CSOs.
(4) Engage in job creation → eg SEWA
↓
later SHG Bank linkage program by State
Collaboration - doesn't address poverty & malnutrition
(1) Lack of clearly defined roles & responsibilities in the poverty/alleviation nutrition schemes
(2) Overlap of state, NGOs etc lead to → duplication → leaving out certain areas
(3) Lack of resources with CSOs eg → during covid fund crunch
Way forward (1) Clear guidelines on responsibilities of CSOs (National Policy on voluntary Organisation) (2) Utilise NGO Darpan (Niti Aayog) to collaborate. (3) CSOs & State together can realise the welfare agenda & fulfillment of Sustainable Development Goals 1 & 2.
