IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0Prior Year Facts and Circumstances: It is our conclusion that MSI Integrity passes the 10 Facts and Circumstance Test based on the following: 170A-9F3ii- Attraction of public support- MSI Integrity's mission is to research the human rights impact and value of voluntary initiatives in business that address business and human rights, facilitate learning in the field, and develop tools to evaluate initiatives from a human rights perspective. These initiatives, such as Fairtrade and Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil certifications are relied on by the general public. We provide free assessment tools that are available for the public to use to measure their effectiveness from a human rights perspective and hold free public events such as webinars and online discussions. We are also increasingly examining the benefits to the national workforce, as well as to especially marginalized communities, of worker-owned and -governed business entities. We have a portal on our website to encourage direct public donations. 170A-9F3iiiA,B- Percentage of financial support and Sources of financial support- MSI Integrity is actively working to diversify its funding sources to build up wider public support. However, as our funding landscape has changed post-COVID, we have not been able to attract new funding sources. This means our figures rely heavily on earlier years, when MSI Integrity received significant funding from a small number of large, national, private foundations. These professional foundations each have dozens of staff, with many having well over over 100 staff members, and a significant public presence. We work with multiple different program officers at these foundations they were not the result of personal or private relationships with individuals nor were they family-managed foundations. These grants were multi-year in nature and in accordance with GAAP recorded in full when awarded. No employee or board member of MSI Integrity has business or family relations with these foundations, or any of their staff. MSI Integrity's fundraising, historically, has been conducted primarily by direct contact with potential donors, carried out under the supervision of officers and directors of MSI Integrity. 170A-9F3iiiC Representative governing body- MSI Integrity is governed by a board of directors comprised of four public-interest lawyers and academics who have special knowledge and expertise about human rights and global governance. It does not have any representation from the foundations or donors who support it. 170A-9F3iiiD Availability of public facilities or services public participation in programs or policies.- MSI Integrity publishes scholarly studies and tools that are widely available and used by colleges, universities, and members of the general public. In 2018, the organization developed a global research network of MSIs to help facilitate dialogue and critical reflection on MSIs among researchers and practitioners. In 2020, MSI Integrity published a report and digital tool to help academics, economists, lawyers, activists, and the public understand MSIs and their impact on business and human rights. In 2021, the organization translated the report into Spanish for wider public use. In 2022, staff participated in many media engagements, including in TV, podcast and online formats. In addition, the staff of MSI Integrity regularly participated in dialogues, conferences and research workshops to share research and good practices. Where possible, all these events, discussions and dialogues are recorded and made publicly available on our website.
