"What Works" Series The publications looks at the growth in inter-sectoral partnering in recent years, and explores a number of case studies involving IYF (International Youth Foundation) and its global Partner network, as well as valuable lessons learned. Highlighted throughout are examples of IYF partnerships with global companies such as Cisco Systems, Gap Inc., Kellogg Company, Microsoft, Nike, Nokia, and Shell International. IYF was created largely to help global companies—and others with international giving interests—plan effective strategies for investing in children and youth. At the heart of this effort has been the creation of a global network of Partner foundations, organizations, and initiatives spanning over 60 countries. These Partners identify the most critical issues facing young people, select the most effective local programs, and make grants. Additional case studies explore locally-based partnerships initiated by or involving IYF Partners.
