\nAcademic non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are already one of the
\nmost important institutional sites of knowledge production in the
\ncountries of the global South. This article defines academic NGOs as
\nthose NGOs which produce not only documentation but also academically
\nengaging articles, reports, edited volumes, bibliographies, journals
\nand monographs. It argues that their growth in the recent decades has
\ntaken place amidst the mammoth growth in the number of NGOs in general
\nfor structural and personal reasons. Examples from Nepal are provided
\nto illustrate, both at the level of procedures and at the level of
\noutcomes, the kinds of contributions academic NGOs have made to the
\nknowledge enterprise. I also suggest that the links between editorial
\ncontrol over what academic NGOs produce and the funding they receive
\nare more complex than is usually assumed, and that the issue of their
\naccountability needs to be rendered in a multiple-constituency model
\nsimilar to that at work in conventional universities.<\/p>\n
