Learning and Forgetting in Development NGOs draws on a range of
theoretical approaches and empirical evidence to explore how
development organisations learn or fail to learn from experience.
Despite the overwhelming discourses of NGOs as learning
organisations, little is known about the phenomenon of learning
within NGOs. As constantly changing buzzwords and institutional
approaches abound and old ideas and concepts are "re-discovered",
development NGOs are often accused of trying to reinvent the wheel
as they struggle to escape from the challenges of development
amnesia. Based on detailed empirical data on the everyday practices
and accounts of development practitioners, this book moves between
the boundaries of organisational institutionalism, learning
theories, management and ethnographies of NGOs practices to
investigate the many faces of organisational learning in an attempt
to counteract development amnesia. Learning and Forgetting in
Development NGOs will be an essential guide for students, scholars
and development practitioners with an interest in development
management and organisational theory.
