摘要：Third sector organizations are emerging as one of the major partner in governance along with the public and corporate sector all over the world i ncluding Pakistan. However, there is dearth of research on governance practices and models specifically the role of advisory board in such organizations. The paper explores the dominant model of internal organizational governance in third sector organizati ons and discusses the role of governing board, its functions and responsibilities in governance of TSOs in the specific context of Pakistan. The study adopts a mixed methods research design to reach the findings. The quantitative data for the study was col lected through structured questionnaires while qualitative data was gathered by interviews of key respondents to strengthen the findings of the study. The present paper discusses the prevailing organizational model of governance of non - profit organizations in Pakistan in relation with different models of governance of TSOs in developed and developing countries including South Asian countries. It is expected that identification of key roles, functions and responsibilities of governing board in third sector o rganizations in Pakistan in comparison with other countries will particularly help in defining key features with strengths and weaknesses of the indigenous model of governance and role of board in organizations operating in Pakistan. The paper provides use ful recommendations towards improvement in this regard through collaborated and integrated learning procedures.
