Itad has been awarded a grant to support the Rockefeller Foundation’s Resilience Team integrate and advance resilience thinking into the Foundation’s initiative  design and implementation.

Working closely with the Rockefeller Foundation’s Initiative teams and grantees across a range of sectors, Itad will develop new knowledge products on specific resilience topics relevant to the work of the Foundation and the wider development and evaluation communities.

This collaboration between the Rockefeller Foundation and Itad will enhance the Foundation’s own capacity for building resilience, by infusing and integrating the new knowledge generated under the grant into the new issue areas and the outcomes of the Foundation’s initiatives. The outputs will showcase how resilience can practically be infused throughout development work across a range of geographical and sectoral contexts.

This grant will not only benefit the Foundation, but also the broader development and evaluation communities in the U.S and worldwide, who will be better equipped to use resilience as a lens in creating and implementing development initiatives.
