“Staff annually sign an acknowledgment of the internews ethics policies, which include the conflict of interest policy. At the same time, staff are presented with a conflict of interest form to be completed should they have anything to declare. All internews staff are responsible for identifying their own personal potential or actual conflicts of interest and other ethics policy violations in all of their activities. Conflicts of interest are reported through the internews ethics committee, the head of hr for either internews us or internews europe, any internews officer or member of the board, or through an anonymous reporting platform. The head of hr and/or the ethics committee reviews the disclosure and make a determination about necessary corrective measures, if any. Under the disclosure, protection, and investigation (whistleblower) policy, all staff, and in particular supervisors, managers, and other senior staff, are required to report any ethics violations about which they are aware, including a colleague's conflict of interest. Annually, officers, directors and key employees are required to sign a conflict of interest policy statement and disclose conflicts of interest. An interested person must inform the board if a conflict of interest arises and recuse himself/herself from all discussions and voting on the matter until the interest is resolved.”
