International organizations impact local governance by promoting best practices, setting regulatory standards, and providing resources or support for development initiatives. They can facilitate collaboration among governments, NGOs, and local communities to address socioeconomic challenges. For instance, organizations like the World Bank and International Monetary Fund influence local policy decisions through funding, conditions for aid, and technical assistance. This can enhance governance capacity and encourage adherence to internationally recognized norms. However, reliance on external organizations may also raise concerns about sovereignty and effective representation of local needs in decision-making processes.
