Resumen
VAN NIEKERK, Joan y MATTHIAS, Carmel. Government and non-profit organisations: Dysfunctional structures and relationships affecting child protection services. Social work (Stellenbosch. Online) [online]. 2019, vol.55, n.3, pp.239-254. ISSN 2312-7198. http://dx.doi.org/10.15270/52-2-737.
This article is based on a qualitative descriptive study of the child protection system after 1994. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with senior social workers in management positions in the Department of Social Development and non-profit organisations in three provinces. The main focus of the article is on the structure, functioning and resourcing of child protection services in post-apartheid South Africa. Key findings of the study include the lack of an over-arching strategy for child protection services, the dysfunctional relationship between government and the non-profit sector, and inadequate resourcing.
