For more than 40 years, the Inter-American Foundation has been channeling development assistance that supports the self-help efforts of the organized poor in Latin America and the Caribbean. From the onset, each of our grantees expects their work to be monitored and evaluated.
Pursuant to examining the requirements of
The President’s Open Government initiative the IAF reviewed the information it currently provides on its programs and its stewardship of U.S. tax-payer dollars.
This section of the IAF Web site contains shortcuts to items of interest to the public.
Applying for Grants:
The guidelines for applying for an IAF’s grant are clearly displayed on the IAF website as evidenced by the hundreds of organizations from Latin America and the Caribbean submit their ideas to the IAF every year.
Annual Report:
The Annual Report offers a detailed account of IAF’s awards and other activities during the relevant fiscal year. Visitors to our Web site can review the funding history as far back as 1994. Previous editions of the annual report will be uploaded in the near future.
Grassroots Development Journal: The journal of the Inter-American Foundation, published since 1972, reports on the experiences of IAF grantees and analyzes development themes. Many issues include updates on former grantees, reported long after their funding has ended, that show how our investments continue to yield results. All issues are available online.
Evaluations:
IAF’s annual Results Report compiles data submitted by grantees and verified by IAF’s contractors, on indicators selected from the
Grassroots Development Framework, main evaluation tool. Visitors to our Web site can review these reports as far back as 1998.
