Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the determinants of the introduction of evaluation systems in partnership programs between the government and nonprofit organizations (NPOs) in Japan. We used questionnaires about partnership programs between the government and NPOs for analysis. The dependent variable that was adopted was the option to introduce evaluation systems into partnership programs, and explanatory variables were divided into two categories which were the organizational conditions of the local governments and NPOs and program conditions such as the cost, type of contract, and content. The results were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. As an important result, we have found that there were relationships between the type of contract and the option to introduce evaluation systems into the partnership programs. Concretely, outsourcing-type programs tend to be evaluated, while grant-type programs tend not to be evaluated. This result shows that the government takes the initiative in evaluating partnership programs, and also shows that NPOs depend on the government. In the future, NPOs will need to participant actively in evaluation systems for partnership programs.<br>
