DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

[Docket No. FR-5603-N-80]


Notice of Submission of Proposed Information Collection to OMB 
Electronic Stakeholder Survey--Office for International and 
Philanthropic Innovation

AGENCY: Office of the Chief Information Officer, HUD.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The proposed information collection requirement described 
below has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
for review, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act. The Department 
is soliciting public comments on the subject proposal.
    The Electronic Stakeholder Survey is necessary to collect 
information for demonstrating the outputs and outcomes of meetings, 
conferences, and other activities presented by HUD's Office for 
International and Philanthropic Innovation (IPI). The Office for 
International and Philanthropic Innovation (IPI) supports HUD's efforts 
to find new solutions and align ideas and resources by working across 
public, private, and civil sectors to further HUD's mission. IPI works 
towards these goals by developing networks and facilitating 
collaboration of key partners and resources. To gather feedback on the 
various meetings, conferences, and other events and activities IPI 
presents, it is necessary to survey participants at both immediate and 
medium-term intervals. IPI is seeking to understand the effectiveness 
of these events in sharing information, connecting participants, 
establishing plans for coordination, and influencing programmatic, 
research, and funding agendas and resources. As we increase the 
effectiveness of these cross-sector convenings, HUD benefits from 
increased access to and synthesis of information regarding successes 
and failures in domestic and global housing and urban development. 
Residents and communities across the country also benefit from the 
increased impact achieved by alignment of cross-sector resources and 
ideas.
