Togetherness: How Governments, Corporations, and NGOs Partner to Support Sustainable Development in Latin America
This study, commissioned by the Inter-American Foundation, examines 12 intersectoral partnerships (ISPs) in Latin America, to uncover new insights related to three questions: 1) What are the benefits and challenges that emerge when local governments, businesses and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) join forces to bring about sustainable improvements in the lives of the poor 2) What can partners do to maximize the benefits and minimize the costs of intersectoral partnering 3) What is "best practice" for funding entities that wish to promote productive partnering.
