Summary: | Background: The Iranian society should appreciate health and well-being, food security, and social security in 2026. It is strongly related to the tasks of Nongovernmental Organizations (NGOs), concerning its extent. Therefore, this research aimed to identify fundamental factors in the active involvement of NGOs and the Mashhad municipality, in sociocultural programs.
Methods: This research used a qualitative approach. Also, the statistical population included the NGOs that have at least once cooperated with the municipality. The study sample recruited using a purposeful sampling technique. The collected data were generated through the design of triangulation. Subsequently, 159 concepts, 40 subcategories, and 18 items were obtained.
Results: The results indicated that the maximum mutual participation is the only interaction type that could fully satisfy both the municipality and NGOs.
Conclusion: A misleading, slogan-based, result-oriented participation exists between these organizations, because the principles of involvement are not observed. |
