    The document describes four generations of development-oriented NGO strategies: 1) First generation NGOs focused on relief and welfare to address shortages, with immediate time frames and individual-level scope. 2) Second generation used community development to address local inertia, with project-level time frames and neighborhood scope. 3) Third generation pursued sustainable systems development to address institutional and policy constraints, with 10-20 year time frames and regional scope. 4) Fourth generation mobilized people's movements to address inadequate mobilizing visions, with indefinite time frames and global scope.
