Description: | The South African National NGO Coalition (SANGOCO) was formed in August 1995. It has since become an umbrella body of about 4000 South African NGOs consisting of provincial and sectoral affiliates, working in a wide range of development areas.
The overall objective of the Coalition is to create an environment in which the development sector can carry out its work with fewer obstacles, increased confidence and greater results at less cost.
The work of the NGO coalition has been consolidated into six programme areas. These are:
* Promoting the development of pro-poor social, economic and development policy.
* Developing an enabling legislative and institutional environment for the NGO sector.
* Promoting the financial sustainability of the NGO Sector.
* Consolidating the organisation fo the Coalition and the NGO sector.
* Building the human resources of the NGO sector.
* Disseminating appropriate and relevant information within the NGO sector and to a broader audience.
