Evaluating the Dynamics of Partnerships in Latin America and the Caribbean
April 28, 2010



Promoting development activity in Latin America and the Caribbean

The Resource Foundation (TRF) is a leader in philantrophic giving in Latin America and the Caribbean since 1987. It partners with corporate, foundation and individual donors and 150 experienced NGOs in 25 countries to increase opportunities and improve living standards for the region's disadvantages. The Resource Foundation's founder Loren Finnell has been cited for "writing the book on the practice of helping individual and corporate donors support non-U.S. NGOs in ways that were previously felt to be too complicated and risky".

The forum on "Evaluating the Dynamics of Partnerships in Latin America and the Caribbean" is hosted by the United Nations Office for Partnerships and The Resource Foundation in the United Nations Headquarters in New York. It aims at bringing together corporate and foundation leaders, along with evaluation specialists, to discuss the potential, challenges and intricacies of partnerships, particularly as they relate to promoting development activity in Latin America and the Caribbean.
