  • Determine if CI’s work current portfolio in the country is aligned with the Southern Cross Strategy
  • Identify if CI is positioned to achieve significant Southern Cross results in the Panama by 2025
  • Analyze external political environment in Panama and CI’s ability to achieve key goals
  • Describe the landscape of conservation organizations and main conservation donors in the country
  • Assess if CI is filling a unique niche in the country that other organizations are not filling
  • Describe funding opportunities that CI is eligible for given current legal status in the country

Main outputs

  • A summary analysis of funding spent by donor of CI-Panama over last 3 years and funding prospects for next 3 years
  • A final report with report findings and recommendations to be presented verbally to CI’s executive team
