Moreover instrumental transactions imply inequality in relations between organizations. For example, the status of an operator of small grants program makes a local NGO a desirable partner for many counterparts. At the same time, this NGO has no special interest in establishing relations with many of those that want to collaborate with it. The strongest NGOs get resources beyond the field of local civil society and, therefore, they have no incentives to collaborate with others besides those that are prescribed to their statuses as a grant operator and/or a coordinator of trainings.
