Conclusions
The NGO has a small budget and needs new ideas with immediate effects The new ideas have to create a network between the members (more
cooperation in the organization) Innovative methods can be easily followed if the members are willing to
accept them The innovation ideas are separated into three levels of difficulties: easy,
medium and high, for fast implementation they should start from the easiest ones
