Zusammenfassung:Suggests that the problems that are tearing at the fabric of society - poverty, racism, environmental degradation, lack of health protection, declining trust in government, and many others - can only be tackled by strong policy work, advocacy, and citizen mobilisation. They will not be resolved by better services and programmes, although these are important.

Looks at 7 of the major challenges that face the non-profit sector. (Original abstract - amended)
