What role do non-governmental organizations have in advocating for social and environmental justice? NGO’s have the ability to harness community energy, work outside of the strict confines of government bureaucracy, and the mandates of the profit sector. Therefore, they play a critical role in a democracy – in particular, their ability to address human and natural needs, justice, sustainability these are issues that profit motivation and bureaucratic intransigence often have a difficult time addressing in effective and responsive ways.
