Buen día estimados colegas,
La siguiente consulta está relacionada con una serie de pasos posteriores a la implementación de una iniciativa
Convenios: Roles de los actores, cofinanciamiento
Compromiso de permanencia en el tiempo (15 años?)
Sé que la expresión "permanencia en el tiempo" suena un poco redundante considerando que más adelante se indica entre parentesis un tiempo específico.
Todas sus sugerencias son bienvenidas
My try:
Commitment to staying throughout the time????
Demasiado literal?

: Cutting my own throat here, but this does sound better. I don't agree that it sounds "more English" though. Just less formal.

permanence commitment
AKA "Commitment of Permanence".
I agree that "time" is already subsumed in the notion of permanence.

The usage in the 2nd sample sentence is more associated with mobile phone providers, which sometimes insist on remaining with the same company for a certain length of time in order to enjoy special benefits or low rates. However, I don't see why it can't be used in other contexts as well.
