The challenges of The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International Currently and towards the future there are a series of challenges that we have to face as an organization. In a very concise manner, I describe bellow some of the most relevant ones, not classified in any order of importance. The challenge of continue to Streamline Procedures - A great step was already given with the establishment of a new grants structure. The initial analysis and the establishment of criteria for them to be elaborated reduced the several types of grants to only two, allowing also the progressive reduction of approval time and their concentration in the six areas of focus. The next step will be to improve and redefine these criteria for them to better satisfy the needs of the community while maintaining the continuity of the services rendered and produce the necessary impact on the community we serve while being relevant. The challenge of definition of metrics in the six areas of focus Metrics that allow the evaluation of projects with respect to their impact on the community, their sustainability better defined in each area of focus and their value and not only their cost. These metrics will allow the comparison of the effectiveness of projects in the areas of focus and the establishment of parameters of good execution and their repeatability.
