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.
Request for Comments: The IAF issued a 60-day Federal Register
notice on August 30, 2022 (87 FR 52990). Comments were solicited and
continue to be invited on: (a) 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; (b) 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; (c) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways
to 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. Comments submitted in response to this notice
will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All
comments will become a matter of public record.
A Notice by the Inter-American Foundation on October 27, 2022.

Acting General Counsel.
