Project Details

Description

The anti-pandemic control measures promoted through the anti-pandemic system recently set up by Taiwan’s government have effectively curbed the spread of COVID-19. However, they have also blurred the mission of the third sector while restricting collective actions. In this project, the concept and framework of resilience governance of third sector were proposed. The discussion covered how the nonprofit organizations in Taiwan under the impact of the pandemic designed internal management and leadership and the institutional arrangement of external public-private collaborations in order to find a balance between the government’s pandemic control measures and the charity role of the third sector. This led to the full restoration or even the strengthening of the nonprofit organizations’ existing missions and collective actions. In this original conceptualframework, the nonprofit organizations developed stability, adaptation, and transformation capabilities and corresponding strategies along the post-pandemic outbreak timeline in collaboration with the external government, enterprises, and communities. This project will span a period of two years. Qualitative researchwas adopted to carry out participation observation and in-depth interviews were conducted with leaders of representative social service nonprofit organizations and voluntary community organizations, third sector-related civil servants from governmental agencies, potential enterprise donors, and community civil groups greatly affected by the pandemic. In the midst of the major environmental turbulence, the structure of the management and leadership strategies of nonprofit organizations designed by the third sector in Taiwan under the guidance of the resilience governance concept was discussed in detail. The aspects included management and leadership strategies on nonprofit organizations’ mission commitment, reciprocal trust, financial transparency, resource llocation, leadership transformation, optimistic cognition, financial improvement, governance structure, and volunteer makeup etc. The resilience capabilities and strategies of the nonprofit organizations will be trengthened to continue maintaining organizational missions and promoting collective actions.
