Partners in the Americas
Partners has been active in Latin America for over ten years. Partners has established four local Centers that are staffed entirely by in-country professionals who work with government, civil society and business to facilitate consensus on contentious issues, resolve disputes, and conduct cross-sectoral cooperative planning. Centers focus on advancing democratic planning and decision- making, engaging more citizens and organizations in civic matters, promoting more effective public-private partnerships, and building local capacity to provide change and conflict management services and skills dissemination. Centers also manage diverse programs on topics such as municipal good governance, anti-corruption and natural resource management. Partners and the Latin American Centers are currently implementing the regional Catalysts for Democratic Change in the Americas Program.
