Reasons for joining the program:

PADF has been a recurring participant of this wonderful space to seek opportunities and connect stakeholders across the region. My main interest is to expand our three organizational strategic pillars, which include addressing the needs of vulnerable populations, promoting sustainable livelihoods, and advancing the rights and justice in Latin America and the Caribbean.

On a personal level, I am eager to engage with high-level and qualified professionals and capitalize on the weak ties ACE promotes to build wide bridges and contribute to positive change in the Americas. My specific goal is to listen and understand where we can connect the dots to leverage more impactful interventions for collaboration. As a proposal writer and business development professional I engage a lot in the creative process of program development, so having access to and updating my base of knowledge on who and what is available is a value add to the work I do and the value I deliver to the mission of my organization and the mandate of the Organization of American States.

PADF’s mission is to create a hemisphere of opportunity for all. We work across Latin America and the Caribbean to make our region stronger—more healthy, peaceful, just, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable for current and future generations. For 60 years, we have served the most vulnerable communities, investing resources throughout the hemisphere. We partner with and enable civil society, governments, and the private sector to address the needs of vulnerable populations, promote sustainable livelihoods, and advance rights and justice. PADF is nimble, innovative, and uniquely positioned to work with and across public and private sectors and civil society. PADF seeks new partners to join us in connecting local organizations with key regional and international supporters, networks, and spaces for cross-collaboration.
