Investment of FCRA fund
into FD with other bank with a motive to earn handsome
interest has not been allowed under the act as
explained by the panel members of CAs
My question is whether
the above explanation is by interpretation of certain
provisions of the act or specified under any section of
the act
Feedback
Ø
This
Workshop has been good effort for making us understand

IT & FCRA Act
-Accountability &
transparency towards the different stakeholders.

It has
been acknowledged in the media, amongst policy makers,
academia and even in this workshop amongst CSOs that the
economic growth model simply is not resulting in the
trickle- down effect as desired .To the contrary it is
resulting in ever greater marginalization and widening
of the gap between rich and poor.
Feedback
Ø
While CSOs
are making noble efforts to fill the gap between
economic policy and its consequences, what role
can/should CSOs play in advocating to change/ replace
the economic growth/ capitalist/ industrial economic
model and policy ?
Ø
Can/Should
CSOs activate for India to step back from neo-liberal
economic globalization and explore alternative economic
models?
Question: for Ms.
Mandakini Pant (PRIA)
There remains a
strong bias favouring Western academic scholarship over
Southern academic scholarship, in terms of historical
context, concepts of dev’t, policy approaches etc. How
has this affected PRIA’s efforts in collaboration with
Uvic & IDS in creating space for Southern academic
knowledge.

available with regard to addressing issue of water

Why it is not in priority?

strategy should be taken-up by CSO’s to address issues

Ø
It was a
wonderful two days programme. It should be conducted
regularly.
Ø
It should
be more interactive.
Ø
Participants details should be shared and an e-group
formed for greater learning.
Ø
Next
session should be more focused on legal and taxation
issues.
Ø
Overall it
was a comprehensive package. Still I felt that the time
allotted was less as we could not focus more on the need
of the speakers for more time.

Suggestions for
future workshop:-
Ø
More
group work, energisers & participatory approach
to be adopted.
An Observation for
this workshop:-
Ø
NPO’s
working primarily on environment, water, climate,
agriculture were invited, but may be next time
organizations working on health issues should also be
called.
Ø
Proposal-
writing, though a vast topic, can still be covered on
one of the days of the next workshop.
Ø
After all,
through proposal writing skills an NPO stands to seek
business.

P. K. Dutta (AFPRO) |
Ø
This
particular workshop is focused on “Nurturing Partnership
for Developing Sustainable CSOs” but can the organizers
explore some possibilities on “How the CSOs can be made
sustainable”, e.g. organizations like Sadguru
Foundations, PRADAN or AFPRO are doing lot of good work.
Our focus is on quality work, technically sound,
socially acceptable and sustainable, but to do so, one
organization needs good quality of staff. The
administrative budget allotted in any program is always
not enough. Under such situation, how to balance the
quality of work or organisation’s reputation-this in
terms of sustainability of CSOs-what we can do? |
