Abstract

The aim of this study is to evaluate the roles of donors in funding projects

implemented by all local councils in Jenin Governorate from the Joint

Services Council member’s point of view by examining the nature of these

projects, and the goals and policies of the donors.

To achieve the study goals, the descriptive methodology has been used,

and a questionnaire consists of 10 parts were distributed to 78 Joint Service

Council members, which represent 100% of the study population.

The results of the study revealed that the academic levels for the council

members vary, and that the councils do not have any specialized research

departments related to their functions. Furthermore, the aids and projects

funded by the donors are conditional, and the donors do not fund economic

projects.

In light of these findings, the study recommends issuing a legislation to

impose the requirement of certain educational level for accepting a member

or candidate for the local institutions, in addition to have independent

specialized research departments for each council or a joint one for all

councils in Jenin Governorate. Finally, the councils have to depend on

themselves for providing funding for lasting projects instead of relying on the

donors conditional aids
