MISSION: Close the gap between data and social development programs by cultivating a dynamic, interrelated and ethical research ecosystem that informs sustainable, impactful Guatemalan development. VISION: A prosperous Guatemala advanced by ethical, evidence-based, measurable, and sustainable social development. Our development work is fourfold. FUNDEGUA reviews, facilitates, shares, and applies research. REVIEW - Ensure that research proposals meet ethics and impact requirements. FACILITATE - Create meaningful stakeholder connections to advance research projects and generate new data. SHARE - Enable stakeholders to disseminate data, learn from others, and understand the importance of research. APPLY - Use rigorous research methods to conduct high quality development evaluations and prompt increased project impact.
