Policy Governance Mode Internal governance-Tanzania Non-Governmental Organization (NGO). A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the award of degree of Master of Business Administration in Corporate Management (MBA-CM) of Mzumbe University. This study was conducted in Dar es Salaam local NGO and explored the current internal governance practiced by local NGOs. The questions explored were: what is the governance mechanisms practice, how do NGOs operationalize internal governance, what is the function of governing body and what are the accountability mechanisms practices by NGOs. The research used a qualitative approach and data were collected through purposively selected board members, key experts and management team from conveniently selected nine (9) NGOs who were interviewed. Findings from the study show that, NGOs lack uniformity to practice governance, and this is mainly contributed by lack of resources and knowledge on governance. Also, functions of governing board that are mainly done include resource management, financial controls, monitoring and evaluation, although there is no distinct separation of responsibility between management team and board members as each sometimes assumes the roles of the other due to lack of knowledge. Also, findings have revealed that, local NGOs from the study very rarely conduct capacity building on governances, mostly because these NGO are donor dependent and governance is mainly not supported by donors as key activity that needed separate funding. Additionally, NGOs have admitted that they have little awareness on NGO governance and request training and frequent facilitation on internal governance Private 2026-06-19T08:43:38Z 2020 Thesis APA https://scholar.mzumbe.ac.tz/handle/123456789/2136 Thesis application/pdf Mzumbe University
