The Pan American Development Foundation (PADF) is supporting vulnerable communities throughout Latin America and the Caribbean during the COVID-19 pandemic. PADF is providing immediate assistance in the most urgent areas of response to mitigate the impact on local health systems, promote public awareness on prevention and response, and prepare for economic recovery.
PADF is also offering virtual STEM education to students and training teachers to deliver online lessons, monitoring human rights violations as governments implement national responses to COVID-19 that can erode citizen trust in public institutions, and supporting local community policing efforts as crime and violence rise while justice and security checks and balances are temporarily halted or scaled back.
With nearly 60 years of experience across the region and strong partnerships with local communities, civil society, and public sector, PADF is uniquely positioned to offer assistance in key areas of response to COVID-19. PADF has extensive in-country networks and an established track-record of effective project management through on-the ground and virtual collaboration. With sound financial controls, we can quickly facilitate remote procurements and payments through mobile and e-vouchers.
