It is non-governmental organization(NGO) that have played major roles in making more and more people know that various problems deemed as domestic ones of every sovereign nation for a long time(such as human rights, environment, development and armament reduction) are the critical matters around the globe. Especially, in the international society, the expanded influential power of NGO is a result from globalization process that comes to create an integrated community via the latest advancement of IT technology. Also, the United Nations revealed its limitations like mammoth organizations and institution formed by representatives of government in each nation, although it set an ultimate aim at the maintenance of peace and security in international society. As a result, the issues of in-house reformation began to be on the rise, and the collaborative relationships between UN and NGO become more spotlighted in terms of importance than ever.

Therefore, this study intends to look into various conceptual definitions of NGO and give an overview about the history of NGO.

Finally, with regard to overall discussions about NGO's status from the angle of international law, this study will analyze the relationships between NGO and UN, between NGO and UN technical expert group, and between NGO and local organizations respectively. In addition, with regard to the matter of NGO's independence in accordance with international law, this study will examine NGO's qualification for international body corporate in positive and proactive ways so as to seek the favorable directions of NGO for its development in the future.
