SUMMARY: The Inter-American Foundation (IAF), as part of its continuing
efforts to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a
preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and
federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. This program helps ensure that requested data is
provided in the desired format; reporting burden (time and financial
resources) is minimized; collection instruments are clearly understood;
and the impact of collection requirements on respondents is properly
assessed.
DATES: Written comments must be submitted to the office listed in the
address section below within 60 days from the date of this publication

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with President Biden's January
26, 2021 memorandum on Tribal Consultation and Strengthening Nation-to-
Nation Relationships, and Executive Order 13175, Consultation and
Coordination with Tribal Governments (November 6, 2000), the IAF is
committed to engaging in meaningful dialogue with Tribal Leaders.
Currently, the IAF is soliciting comments concerning the information
collection of organizations that may be Indigenous-led or Indigenous-
serving in Latin America, the Caribbean, and the United States. The
questions would give such organizations an opportunity to participate
in the design and fulfilment of U.S. policies and actions that may
impact their interests. Also, the IAF would like to gauge interest on
grantee exchanges with Tribal Nations in the United States in order to
share best practices.
The IAF is particularly interested in comments which:
--Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have practical utility;
--Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
--Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected; and
--Can help the agency minimize the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g.,
permitting electronic submission of responses.
A Notice by the Inter-American Foundation on June 3, 2021.
Aswathi Zachariah,
General Counsel.
