The INGO Accountability Charter is a set of guiding principles thatNon-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) adopt to demonstrate transparency, responsibility, and ethical conduct in their work. It encourages INGOs to be accountable to the communities they serve, donors, and their own staff by establishing clear standards for governance, impact measurement, and respectful engagement. The goal is to build trust, ensure effective use of resources, and improve the quality of aid and advocacy efforts. In essence, it’s a commitment by NGOs to operate openly, responsibly, and with integrity, fostering greater confidence and positive outcomes in their humanitarian and development activities.
