Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Footnote for uncertain tax position under FIN 48 (Part X)

GKI follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC), which provides guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Foundations financial statements. The guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. As of year end, GKI had no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in its financial statements. GKIs policy is to recognize interest and penalties on tax positions related to its unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the financial statements. No interest and penalties were recorded during the year.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Systems Research and Evaluation - GKI continues to lead the charge in helping international development practitioners learn and apply systems approaches for sustainable development. In 2017, GKI worked with two teams at the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) to deepen their understanding of the systems in which they operate. Together with the South Africa mission and the Global Development Lab, we analyzed the South Africa of the Albertina Sisulu Executive Leadership Programme in Health (ASELPH) to close the gap between the public and private healthcare sectors into a unified system that provides quality health services to all regardless of income level.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Policy & Strategy GKI continued its work with USAID around Systems Leadership to practical organizational practice at USAID. In support, GKI developed a novel conceptual framework to define the elements of a program that contribute to sustainable outcomes to advance USAIDs policies and practices that enable sustainability and self-reliance. In partnership with GAIN GKI convened experts in the fields of nutrition, agriculture, and sustainable food systems to identify the latest innovations in agribusiness market places, food design, information connectivity, materials science, and supply chain technology, and ultimately assessed more than 90 relevant innovations for the future of transforming food systems.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc0Capacity Building/Training - GKI launched an Improved Innovation Decision Making (IIDM) toolset for practitioners, in collaboration with the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA). The IIDM toolset guides problem solvers to innovate and collaborate more effectively. GKI ran five trainings on innovation for AGRAs stakeholders working to design and scale innovative solutions in the maize value chain in Tanzania. GKI also built a customized immersion into innovation decision-making for the United States African Development Foundation (USADF). Our three-day interactive training was designed to shift the status quo at USADF for both US-based and in-country teams toward innovation as usual. The training influenced USADF to define a new theory of change and identify opportunities for leadership to promote a culture of innovation across the organization.
IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc1Social Innovation Labs - GKI built an evidence base for Collaborating, Learning, and Adapting (CLA) in international development projects under USAIDs Bureau of Policy, Planning and Learning. Hungry to boost the evidence base that CLA contributes to development outcomes, we collaborated with our long-term partner, BioCrops Uganda Ltd., to analyze how GKIs CLA efforts support BioCrops work to improve food security in Uganda through biotech planting materials.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0GKI follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC), which provides guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Foundations financial statements. The guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. As of year end, GKI had no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in its financial statements. GKIs policy is to recognize interest and penalties on tax positions related to its unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the financial statements. No interest and penalties were recorded during the year.
