The Country Office of Guatemala seeks to contribute to the strengthening of public institutions, the closing of social gaps in vulnerable groups, as well as the promotion of the private sector to achieve greater, more inclusive, and sustainable growth. This is done under a gender and diversity perspective, addressing climate change, and embracing digital transformation.

The IDB Group's strategy for Guatemala (2021-2024) aims to reverse the social deterioration exacerbated by the pandemic and foster robust economic growth with a focus on inclusion and environmental sustainability.
To achieve these goals, the strategy emphasizes three priority areas:
- Institutional Strengthening: Enhancing the capacity and effectiveness of key institutions.
- Improvement of Basic Services: Upgrading the delivery of essential services to the most vulnerable populations.
- Private Sector Promotion: Encouraging private sector development to drive inclusive and sustainable economic growth.
The strategy also integrates cross-cutting themes, including gender equality, diversity, digital transformation, and resilience to climate change and natural disasters. Institutional capacity, rule of law, and transparency will be primarily addressed within the first priority area and will also be considered across the other focus areas.
