Some human rights NGOs argued with their colleagues from the sector that NGOs should not cooperate with public authorities in order to preserve their independence and impartiality. The **contesting watchdog approach** of human rights NGOs is, indeed, valid when the goal of an NGO is to monitor and counterbalance the state in order to make it accountable for its actions, however, this policy approach is not always applicable, for instance, for the service-delivery NGOs that work with the social needs of various target groups in the community, where coordination of efforts with the state helps optimize social assistance and ensure better outreach, so these NGOs try to advocate a constructive relationship with government agencies.
