A clear legal status is a necessary condition for developing the work of the NDO but is not sufficient to guarantee participation and cooperation of potential partners: what makes the difference is the NDO’s capacity to motivate and associate its partners in a collaborative work process through networking (in other words: cooperation cannot be obtained by decree).
Jasni pravni status je važan uvjet za razvoj djelovanja NCPD-a, ali nije dovoljan za jamčenje suradnje i sudjelovanja potencijalnih partnera: ono što čini razliku je sposobnost NCPD-a da motivira i povezuje partnere u proces suradnje putem umrežavanja (drugim riječima: sudjelovanje se ne može postići propisom).
