Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“The form 990 is prepared by an accounting firm in conjunction with the organization's financial department. A copy of the draft form 990 is circulated electronically to the full board of trustees for discussion and comment. Each board member is provided opportunity to comment on the information contained in the 990 prior to filing with the internal revenue service.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“The organization has a conflict of interest policy in place. All new board of directors and officers are asked to renew and acknowledge their compliance with the conflict of interest policy on an annual basis. The organization distributes an annual questionnaire to all board of directors and officers. The president presents conflicts of interest to the audit & finance committee, who is tasked with reviewing potential conflicts of interest and if necessary taking to the board of directors for further review and consideration for determining compliance.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The organization undertakes a thorough process for determining the compensation of its executive officers, and uses the same process for all employees. The organization relies on market analysis to determine compensation across all levels, using similarly sized organizations as a benchmark. The organization hired a nonprofit professional advisory group to perform the specific analysis, as well as to search for the chief financial officer. It should be noted that the president and ceo is the founder of the organization. The president draws no salary from innovations for poverty action.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The organization's audited financial statements, form 990 and annual summary are posted on the organization's website and are available at the address listed on page 1 of the form 990. The form 990 is, likewise, published on www.guidestar.org. The organization's governing documents and conflict of interest policy are available upon request and at management's discretion. They are often picked up for other charity evaluation websites such as charity navigator.”

IRS990/Desc0COMMUNITY BASED RANGELAND MANAGEMENT IN NAMIBIA:MANY PEOPLE IN NORTHERN NAMIBIA RELY ON CATTLE PRODUCTION FOR THEIR ECONOMIC LIVELIHOODS, HOWEVER OVERUSE OF THE COMMUNAL GRAZING AREAS AND SUBOPTIMAL GRAZING PRACTICES THREATEN THE LONG-TERM VIABILITY OF THE LAND AND CONTRIBUTE TO PERSISTENT POVERTY. AT THE MOMENT, THERE IS A COLLECTIVE ACTION OR "TRAGEDY OF THE COMMONS" PROBLEM - INDIVIDUAL FARMERS ARE HESITANT TO REDUCE THEIR HERD'S IMPACT ON THE RANGELAND BECAUSE THEY ARE FEARFUL THAT OTHERS WILL NOT FOLLOW SUIT WHICH OFTEN RESULTS IN OVERUSE AND DEGRADATION OF THE LAND. THE COMMUNITY BASED RANGELAND AND LIVESTOCK MANAGEMENT (CBRLM) PROGRAM IN NAMIBIA IS PART OF A LARGE SET OF INTERVENTIONS IN THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR DESIGNED TO REDUCE POVERTY AMONG THE POPULATION OF THE NORTHERN REGIONS OF THE COUNTRY. THIS EVALUATION IS DESIGNED TO TEST THE IMPACT OF THE VARIOUS ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE CBRLM INTERVENTION ON HOUSEHOLD INCOME, CATTLE PRODUCTIVITY, AND THE CONDITION OF THE RANGELAND. THE INTERVENTION TARGETS BOTH INADEQUATE INFORMATION ABOUT APPROPRIATE CATTLE PRODUCTION PRACTICES AND THE SOCIAL OR OTHER BEHAVIORAL PREFERENCES OF FARMERS.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0WASH BENEFITS IN KENYA:DIARRHEAL DISEASES ARE A LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH FOR CHILDREN IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD, KILLING 760,000 CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF FIVE EACH YEAR. EVEN WHEN DIARRHEAL EPISODES ARE NOT FATAL, ILLNESS EARLY IN LIFE CAN HAVE LONG-TERM EFFECTS ON CHILD GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT. IN KENYA, RESEARCHERS ARE EVALUATING THE INDIVIDUAL AND COMBINED EFFECTS OF VARIOUS WASH AND NUTRITION INTERVENTIONS ON THE HEALTH, GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF CHILDREN IN THEIR FIRST TWO YEARS OF LIFE. THE LARGE-SCALE RANDOMIZED EVALUATION IS TAKING PLACE AMONG OVER 8,000 WOMEN AND THEIR NEWBORNS IN RURAL AREAS OF WESTERN KENYA. OUTCOMES OF INTEREST INCLUDE DIARRHEA PREVALENCE, INDICATORS OF COMPROMISED IMMUNE SYSTEMS AND GUT FUNCTION, PARASITIC INFECTIONS, AND PHYSICAL GROWTH, AS WELL AS MOTOR SKILLS, VERBAL SKILLS, AND SOCIO-EMOTIONAL ABILITIES.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0LEVERAGING DIGITIZED GOVERNMENT TRANSFERS TO OFFER LOW-INTEREST MICROCREDIT IN DOMINICAN REPUBLIC: DESPITE THE INITIAL PROMISE OF MICROCREDIT, RANDOMIZED EVALUATIONS HAVE FOUND AT BEST MODEST EFFECTS OF MICROLOANS ON POVERTY. DIGITIZED PAYMENTS FROM GOVERNMENT CASH TRANSFER PROGRAMS PROVIDE A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO OFFER MICROCREDIT WHILE ADDRESSING SOME OF ITS SHORTCOMINGS, POTENTIALLY REDUCING INTEREST RATES, DEFAULT RISK, AND REPAYMENT ISSUES. RESEARCHERS ARE PARTNERING WITH IPA, BANCO BDH LE N, BANCO ADOPEM, AND PROGRESANDO CON SOLIDARIDAD (OR PROSOLI, THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC'S GOVERNMENT-TO-PERSON TRANSFER PROGRAM), TO TEST WHETHER LOANS WITH AUTOMATIC REPAYMENT THROUGH PROSOLI LEAD TO MORE PRODUCTIVE INVESTMENTS AND HIGHER PROFITS AND INCOME, LEADING TO HIGHER CONSUMPTION, WELLBEING, AND GRADUATION FROM THE TRANSFER PROGRAM.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc0CASH TRANSFERS AND MENTAL MODELS IN KENYA:UNCONDITIONAL CASH TRANSFERS (UCTS) ALLOW POOR HOUSEHOLDS THE CHOICE AND FLEXIBILITY OF ALLOCATING RESOURCES TO MEET THE NEEDS THEY FIND MOST PRESSING AND THEY HAVE BEEN SHOWN TO HAVE VARIOUS ECONOMIC AND PSYCHOLOGICAL BENEFITS. THIS EVALUATION IN KENYA TESTS WAYS TO PROMOTING FUTURE ORIENTATION AMONG CASH TRANSFER RECIPIENTS. THE STUDY SEEKS TO ANALYZE THE IMPACT CASH TRANSFERS AND OF SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGICAL INTERVENTIONS (INDIVIDUALLY AND IN COMBINATION) ON PSYCHOLOGICAL AND ECONOMIC OUTCOMES. SEVERAL SUB-STUDIES ARE ASSOCIATED WITH IT.KIUFUNZA II:DESPITE MORE THAN A DECADE OF MAJOR REFORMS AND SIGNIFICANT NEW INVESTMENTS IN PUBLIC EDUCATION, STUDENT LEARNING LEVELS ACROSS EAST AFRICA REMAIN EXTREMELY LOW. TO HELP GENERATE RIGOROUS EVIDENCE ON WAYS TO IMPROVE LEARNING, RESEARCHERS FIRST EVALUATED THE IMPACT OF AN EDUCATION INTERVENTION THAT SENT GRANTS DIRECTLY TO SCHOOLS AND PAID TEACHERS A PERFORMANCE-BASED BONUS. FOLLOWING WEAK, YET PROMISING, RESULTS FROM THE TEACHER BONUSES, RESEARCHERS EMBARKED ON A SECOND PHASE OF THE PROJECT TO EVALUATE THE IMPACTS OF TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF TEACHER INCENTIVES ON STUDENT LEARNING. AFRICAN HEALTH MARKET FOR EQUITY (AHME): SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA ACCOUNTS FOR 24 PERCENT OF THE GLOBAL BURDEN OF DISEASE. WHILE PRIVATE CLINICS ARE THE FIRST SOURCE OF CARE FOR MANY AFRICANS, THE QUALITY OF CARE OFFERED IN PRIVATE FACILITIES IS INCONSISTENT AND OFTEN WEAK, AND THE PRIVATE HEALTHCARE SECTOR FACES A WIDE HOST OF CHALLENGES. IN THIS STUDY, IPA-AFFILIATED RESEARCHERS FROM UC BERKELEY AND UCSF WILL EVALUATE THE IMPACT OF A MULTI-PRONGED PRIVATE HEALTHCARE INITIATIVE ON HEALTHCARE UTILIZATION, QUALITY OF CARE, CLINIC FINANCIAL OUTCOMES, AND CHILD HEALTH OUTCOMES IN KENYA.M-AKIBA- GOVERNMENT BONDS AS A SAVINGS TOOL: TRADITIONAL SAVINGS ACCOUNTS OFTEN HAVE LOW OR NEGATIVE RETURNS IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES, WHICH MAY EXPLAIN WHY MANY POOR HOUSEHOLDS DO NOT USE THEM TO BOOST THEIR SAVINGS. IN KENYA, RESEARCHERS ARE INVESTIGATING THE IMPACT OF A NEW PRODUCT THAT ALLOWS KENYANS TO INVEST SMALL AMOUNTS OF MONEY IN A LOW-RISK, HIGH-RETURN INFRASTRUCTURE BOND USING THEIR MOBILE PHONES. THE PRODUCT MAY HELP KENYANS INCREASE THEIR SAVINGS AS WELL AS IMPROVE THEIR FINANCIAL LITERACY, AS MANAGING AN INVESTMENT MAY HELP INVESTORS LEARN FINANCIAL CONCEPTS.DISSEMINATING INNOVATIVE RESOURCES AND TECHNOLOGIES TO SMALLHOLDERS (DIRTS):INVESTMENTS IN AGRICULTURAL INPUTS SUCH AS FERTILIZER, HIGH-YIELD SEEDS, AND FARM EQUIPMENT IS LOW AMONG SMALLHOLDER FARMERS. FARMERS UNDERINVEST FOR SEVERAL POSSIBLE REASONS: THEY FACE UNCERTAIN RAINFALL, INPUTS MAY NOT BE WIDELY AVAILABLE IN LOCAL MARKETS, AND FARMERS MAY NOT HAVE THE CASH ON HAND TO PURCHASE THEM JUST PRIOR TO PLANTING SEASON. FARMERS MAY ALSO LACK INFORMATION ON THE BENEFITS OF THESE INPUTS AND HOW TO USE THEM. IN GHANA, RESEARCHERS ARE TESTING WHETHER ACCESS TO IMPROVED-YIELD AGRICULTURAL INPUTS AND AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION ADVICE (INDIVIDUALLY OR IN COMBINATION) LEADS TO MORE INTENSIVE LAND CULTIVATION AND INCREASED EARNINGS AMONG FARMERS IN NORTHERN GHANA WHO RECEIVED ACCESS TO RAINFALL INSURANCE. FINANCIAL RULES OF THUMB VIA MOBILE PHONES - RESEARCH PREPARATION:RECENT EVIDENCE SUGGESTS FINANCIAL TRAINING PROGRAMS TEACHING SIMPLE RULES OF THUMB MAY BE MORE EFFECTIVE THAN TRADITIONAL FINANCIAL TRAINING PROGRAMS. MEANWHILE, MUCH WORK HAS EVALUATED THE IMPACT OF MOBILE PHONES ON PRICING AND FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS. BUT WHAT IF THE TWO WERE COMBINED? THE RESEARCH TEAM IS DEVELOPING AND PILOTING A FINANCIAL RULES OF THUMB TRAINING PROGRAM FOR COFFEE FARMERS IN PERU. RESEARCH PREPARATION FUNDS ARE BEING USED TO FINALIZE THE RESEARCH DESIGN NEEDED TO EVALUATE THE IMPACT OF DELIVERING SMS FOLLOW-UPS TO THE TRAINING PROGRAM.COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS IN ZAMBIA: EMPLOYING COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS MAY HELP GOVERNMENTS ADDRESS THE SHORTAGE OF HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA.
