Political Interests

Non-government organizations in Nepal upped their profile significantly during the deepening armed socio-political conflict in Nepal from 1996 to 2006. New non-government organizations came into being at an increasable speed and the established ones expanded their working profile. As stipulated in Nepalese law, the NGOs are supposed to be purely social organization with not-for-profit motive. This study, however, finds out most of the non-government organizations in Nepal are working to meet vested interest, mainly to satisfy livelihood needs of the non-government organization operators. The window-dressing objectives of Nepalese non-government organization workers have manifold forms ranging from seeking employment to satisfying political interests. The Nepalese government is suggested to tighten up the manipulative operations of non-government organizations by implementing rigid monitoring of non-government organizations operations or open up a policy gateway to register non-government organizations with “earn, survive and serve” objectives.Journal of Advanced Academic Research Vol.1(1) 2014: 36-42

The suitability of current Information System (IS) adoption models is anachronistic when uniformly applied across regions in developing economies, including Latin American (LAT) countries where the context varies from the accepted norm. From the premise that the major ingredients of adoption studies are drivers whose relationships are encapsulated into theoretical models, this chapter present a comprehensive Systematic Literature Review (SLR) process convergent towards the critical selection of reliable scholarly sources in order to identify empirically supported drivers of IS adoption successes and assesses their applicability in public organizations situated in LAT, as not for profit environments. Participants from Public Ecuadorian Organizations were sought out as a focus case to gather opinions and scrutinize identified drivers to demonstrate the depth of this problem. The study offers an overall comprehensive rationalization of proposed drivers, and the identified need for an adapted IS adoption theory for LAT contexts.

Managing Risk

The Canadian Medical Protective Association (CMPA) is a not for profit mutual defence organization with a mandate to provide medico-legal assistance to physician members and to educate health professionals on managing risk and enhancing patient safety. To expand the outreach to its 72,000 member physicians, the CMPA built an online learning curriculum of risk management and patient safety materials in 2006. These activities are mapped to the real needs of members ensuring the activities are relevant. Eight major categories were developed containing both online courses and articles. Each course and article is mapped to the RCPSC's CanMEDS roles and the CFPC's Four Principles. This poster shares the CMPA’s experience in designing an online patient safety curriculum within the context of medico-legal risk management and provides an inventory of materials linked to the CanMEDS roles. Our formula for creation of an online curriculum included basing the educational content on real needs of member physicians; using case studies to teach concepts; and, monitoring and evaluating process and outcomes. The objectives are to explain the benefits of curricular approach for course planning across the continuum in medical education; outline the utility of the CanMEDS roles in organizing the risk management and patient safety medical education curriculum; describe the progress of CMPA's online learning system; and, outline the potential for moving the curriculum of online learning materials and resources into medical schools.
