ABSTRACT
The study is on the Survival Strategies employed by Local NGOs (LNGO) in Gweru in the face of reduced donor-funding. This document might help Gweru LNGOs to evaluate their survival strategies. Qualitative research method has been employed through face to face and semi structured interviews as well as document analysis. 5 out of about 40 Gweru LNGOs have been selected using convenience sampling. NGO by NGO approach was used on data presentation and analysis. Findings have shown that Gweru LNGOs rely much on local sources of funding such as social enterprise, support from individuals, churches and local companies. Cost cutting measures have also been employed for instance cross section duties, reduction of staff benefits and reduction of activities. Findings have also indicated that most of the strategies employed are not sustainable. Therefore, Gweru LNGOs continue to face challenges related to inadequate funds. In line with this, the study suggests that all stakeholders should re-evaluate their support on LNGOs in Gweru.
