“Each founding member reserves the right to appoint two members of the governing body.”

“The prepared form 990 was reviewed by the director of finance and administration and by the members of the governing body before the return was filed with the irs.”

“In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest an interested person discloses the existence of the financial interest and is given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the directors and members of committees with governing body delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts and after any discussion with the interested person he/she is recused from the governing body or committee while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining members decide if a conflict of interest exists. If the governing body or committee has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest it informs the member of the basis for such belief and affords the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the member's response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the governing body or committee determines the member has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest it takes appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.”

“The process for determining the ceo and director of finance and administration's compensation includes the review and approval by independent persons and the use of comparable data.”

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”

“Demonstrating how effective interventions can protect those at risk of modern slavery and to support those experiencing modern slavery to leave the situation. We invest in countries and sectors with the greatest incidence of modern slavery. We measure the effectiveness of interventions with the aim of delivering scalable programs and sustainable progress. We convene researchers, practitioners and donors to share lessons and best practices, ensuring that our partners' voices are represented. In this way, we can make the case for systems change and for the investment needed to support more frontline partners, driving the programmatic work, and shifts in power, that will bring modern slavery to an end.”
