Abstract
The growth of nonprofit organizations (NPOs) and nongovernmental organizations
(NGOs) around the world has been accompanied by a concomitant growth in the
number of education and training programs developed to provide management
training to the leaders of these organizations. This article reports on the current
configuration of international academic programs in nonprofit and philanthropic
studies in Africa, Asia, the Pacific, Europe, and the Americas (apart from the United
States), describing the various forms of education and training programs from country
to country and continent to continent. The authors examine the similarities and
differences in nonprofit management education programs in different parts of the
world, seeking to explain why education programs have a range of forms in different
parts of the world, according to different historical, institutional, and cultural contexts,
thus furthering understanding of the asymmetries and complexities of existing NPO
and NGO education and training programs.
