Abstract: The IAF works to promote sustainable development in Latin America and the Caribbean by offering small investments directly to civil society organizations through funding actions, such as grants and cooperative agreements. By gathering perceptions from grantees on how the IAF works as a funder, the IAF is able to assess its performance and identify opportunities for improvements. The IAF seeks to work with a contractor to independently carry out this survey with IAF grantees. The contractor will use an online survey with a set of standardized questions focused primarily on grant processes, such as the approach to grant selection, the time lapse between selection and commitment, and reporting and evaluation. The contractor will also apply these standardized questions to other funders, thus providing the IAF with findings relative to that of other comparable organizations.

Short Statement: This is a new IC collection and burden has not increased. Note: Annual Cost to Federal Government and ICR Summary of Burden do not reflect annual cost but rather total cost for the entire ICR (i.e. three years) since the ICR consists of a single IC that will only be conducted once. This could not be reflected in the table because the Time Period field in the IC Burden Worksheet could not be specified as "Every Three Years."
