Vision:
At Avina Americas, they envision a prosperous, democratic, integrated, and compassionate Latin America that is strengthened by the diversity of its citizens, inspired by its multiple cultures, and uniquely positioned as a global model of sustainable development.
How They Work
Avina Americas and Fundación Avina work together to consolidate and scale opportunities for systemic change toward sustainable development in Latin America.
Avina Americas serves as a vital bridge to new partners in North America, by building mutually beneficial alliances which incorporate new technology, know-how, and resources. Avina Americas raises the presence and visibility of Latin American causes on the global scale. By building and strengthening international linkages and trust, Avina Americas seeks to accelerate and expand the impact on the ground.
Fundación Avina identifies tipping-point opportunities in the region, which are then shared with Avina Americas in an effort to build regional alliances. Fundación Avina employs its resources, local presence in 13 countries in Latin America, and relationships with thousands of allies to build shared strategies with the potential for continent-wide impact. Fundación Avina invests directly in these opportunities and seeks to link and strengthen the individuals and institutions that can drive that change toward a more sustainable future.
Avina and its allies aim to contribute to ten concrete, systemic changes toward sustainable development in Latin America. These are built around a shared value proposition that motivates Avina and its allies to join forces on a common agenda of coordinated actions. When such an opportunity is identified, Avina brings its abilities and resources to the table as a peer institution, along with leaders and organizations with similar objectives.
Avina provides its ability, skills, knowledge, contacts, resources, strategies, and tools to work towards a common cause. At the same time, Avina seeks to form alliances with other donor institutions to multiply the impact of these opportunities and promote a long-term perspective.
