Overview
In 2016 the Director of the International Planned Parenthood Federation Western Hemisphere Regional office (IPPF WHR), Giesele Carino, conducted an internal, organization-wide assessment of IPPF WHR’s organizational capacity and identify key areas for improvement. In the past several years IPPF WHR has been operating primarily with restricted funds, and this has created a lean organization but with over-extended staff with very little margin for extra or unnecessary work. This organizational effectiveness grant will support external consultants to thoroughly analyze IPPF WHR’s organizational capacity in an effort to create a more efficient, more sustainable and better-performing organization.
