Governance of Non-Profit Health Organizations

Governance of Non-Profit Health Organizations involves the structures and processes used to direct, control, and ensure accountability in mission-driven entities like faith-based hospitals or NGOs in Zambia. This topic covers board composition and roles, fiduciary duties, transparency to donors and communities, and measuring social impact rather than profit. Zambian tertiary health students analyze the unique challenges of governing organizations where the 'owners' are the beneficiaries. Understanding this is key for exams and for leadership in Zambia's significant non-profit health sector, ensuring these organizations remain true to their mission, use resources ethically, and deliver on their promise to communities.
