English Abstract

-This research aimed at assessing to what extent the projects of Disabled Care NGOs in Gaza strip are sustainable, and exploring the factors support project‟s sustainability, in addition to exploring the barriers of incorporating sustainability in the projects. The research used the quantitative analytical descriptive approach to assess the relationship between project‟s sustainability and stakeholder‟s participations, availability of funding, organization system and policy, human resources, and type of project outcomes.

The descriptive approach helped in comparing, explaining, and evaluating findings in order to organize meaningful results. A survey questionnaire used to obtain the primary data.

The research covered the (28) Disabled Care NGOs in Gaza strip which are licensed by the Palestinian Ministry of Interior. The data analysis showed that the respondents‟ answers are positive to the five items of the questionnaire, where they are agreed that stakeholder‟s participation, availability of funding, organization system and policy, human resources, and the type of the project outcomes have statistically significant correlations with project‟s sustainability. The research results showed that the projects of Disabled Care NGOs in Gaza strip seem to be sustainable.

It was notably rising in organizations' awareness about developing and implementing projects characterized by complying with the needs of people with disability (PwD), good participations of stakeholders in all project phases, matching between the organizational objectives and the priority of community and donors, depending on qualified human resources, good management, and having clear monitoring and evaluation plans.

On the other hand; till present Disabled Care NGOs cannot release from the high dependence on the external funding as a result of many challenges facing them, including the inability to recover part of project costs due to the bad economic situation of PwD, the, the lack of self financial resources, the large number of PwD that don‟t match the available funding, and the different needs of PwD required to be met.
