Voluntary organizations and sustainable development: An exploratory study in an Egyptian village

Author

Abstract

The aim of the research is to explore the success story of contextual stakeholders in creating the independent web space, integration of products, ambitions and aspirations among them in an Egyptian village characterized by the high level of education (human capital) to reach the depth of the goals, principles and components of sustainable development. The importance of the research is due to the scarcity of comprehensive studies of stakeholders in one study, and the alleviation of isolation and exclusion in the rural structure. The theoretical framework of the larger sustainable development pillar of "social capital," especially the premise of conciliation, on the strength of civic commitment as the only way to create "generalized societal trust" and the positive sociopolitical and change in developing countries away from loans and external consultations. Research tools from observation, interviews, case studies and records helped stakeholders, internally or externally, to identify this integrated space. The results revealed that stakeholders - not as pressure groups - preferred their knowledge base on the movement and needs of life by directing people directly to resources that did not destroy the environment. The results showed that stakeholders agree on prescriptions or value streams that can be disseminated locally and nationally, such as volunteering, reciprocity and fairness in achieving the tasks of sustainable development away from work for a certain group, place, or intellectual or political agenda. The results propose that changes be made to Putnam's concepts to expand this space.
