ULTIMATELY, THE PROGRAM STRIVES TO ENSURE THE ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT OF COASTAL COMMUNITIES IN AN ECOLOGICALLY SUSTAINABLE WAY. THE GENEROUS SUPPORT RECEIVED FROM THE PAUL AND MAXINE FROHRING FOUNDATION HELPS THE SSA:1. CREATE AND IMPROVE EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR DOMINICAN YOUTH IN MARINE BIOLOGY, CONSERVATION ACTION, AND LEADERSHIP;2. HELP LOCAL COMMUNITIES AND INSTITUTIONS ACCESS THE SKILLS AND RESOURCES THEY NEED TO DEVELOP STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE THE ECOLOGICAL RESILIENCY OF THEIR COASTLINES; AND 3. FACILITATE LINES OF COMMUNICATION BETWEEN NATIONAL-LEVEL POLICYMAKERS, PRIVATE BUSINESSES, AND COMMUNITY INTERESTS UNDER THE BELIEF THAT IMPROVING THIS COMMUNICATION BETTER ENABLES THE DEVELOPMENT OF POLICY THAT ADEQUATELY CONSIDERS THE INTERESTS OF EACH GROUP.THE SSA'S APPROACH TO ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION HAS BEEN TO START SMALL, TEST, AND VALIDATE THE APPROACH, AND THEN INCREMENTALLY EXPAND TO INCLUDE MORE STUDENTS AND THEIR SCHOOLS. IN 2016 - THE PROGRAM'S FIRST YEAR - SIX SCHOOLS PARTICIPATED; IN 2017, EIGHT SCHOOLS PARTICIPATED. IN BOTH OF THESE YEARS, THE SSA'S STAFF LEARNED WHAT WORKED FOR THE STUDENTS AND THE SCHOOLS AND HELPED DELIVER THE CURRICULUM. BY CONTINUING TO ITERATE BASED ON THIS LEARNING, THE SSA WAS ABLE TO EXPAND THE PROGRAM TO 14 SCHOOLS IN 2018 AND HAS MORE GROWTH PLANNED FOR 2019, WITH A DESIRE TO START EXPANDING TO PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN MONTECRISTI AND SAMANA AS WELL.THE EDUCATION PROGRAM LAUNCHED TWO YEARS AGO, WITH AN ANNUAL SUMMER INSTITUTE HOSTED BY THE LEARNING STREAMS INSTITUTE (LSI) AND HIRAM COLLEGE.

THIS YEAR, 11 STUDENTS AND THREE TEACHERS FROM THE DR JOINED THE INSTITUTE. IN TERMS OF ECOLOGICAL RESILIENCY AND TECHNICAL EXPERTISE, THE SSA HAS WORKED CLOSELY WITH RESEARCHERS FROM OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY (OSU) TO ADVANCE MANGROVE RESEARCH AND ASSIST THE GOVERNMENT IN FURTHERING ITS EFFORTS TO CONSERVE MANGROVES. SOME OF THESE ACTIVITIES INCLUDE FUNDING OSU TO BEGIN DEVELOPMENT OF THE WORLD'S LARGEST BLUE CARBON INVENTORY, AN AMBITIOUS EFFORT THAT WILL ULTIMATELY HELP THE DR MEET ITS INTERNATIONAL CLIMATE CHANGE COMMITMENTS AND, IDEALLY, ACCESS INTERNATIONAL CARBON MARKETS OR OTHER SOURCES OF FINANCING TO SUSTAINABLY SUPPORT THE WORK FOR THE LONG-TERM. IF SUCCESSFUL, THIS WORK COULD SERVE AS A MODEL FOR MANGROVE CONSERVATION IN SMALL ISLAND DEVELOPING STATES AROUND THE WORLD. THROUGH THESE EFFORTS, LOCAL RESEARCHERS, ENVIRONMENTAL ADVOCATES, AND POLICY MAKERS ARE DIRECTLY ENGAGED SO THAT THEY MAY BE ABLE TO CONTINUE THIS WORK IN COUNTERPART'S ABSENCE. FINALLY, SSA CONTRIBUTIONS IN THE REALM OF DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL POLICY ARE DEEP AND VARIED. BUILDING ON THE TRUST, EXPERTISE, AND MOMENTUM BUILT OVER THE LAST 15 YEARS, THREE OF THE PARTICIPATING PARTNERS HAVE BEEN ASKED BY THE GOVERNMENT TO CO-MANAGE SOME OF THE LARGEST PROTECTED AREAS IN THE DR. THE SSA'S TEAM IS WORKING WITH VARIOUS GOVERNMENT ENTITIES AND NGOS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF A NATIONAL FISHING STRATEGY AND NATIONAL PLANS TO REGULATE ACTIVITIES IN COASTAL MARINE AREAS.

FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1 COUNTERPART'S PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED AND IMPLEMENTED TO HELP OUR PARTNERS GROW THEIR CAPABILITIES IN WAYS THAT RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT EXPANSION OF THEIR REACH, IMPACT, AND SUSTAINABILITY. IN 2018, COUNTERPART PARTNERED WITH 312 LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS OF ALL TYPES AROUND THE WORLD THAT HAVE A SIMILAR VISION OF STRONG, VIBRANT COMMUNITIES. COUNTERPART'S 25 PROJECTS IN PEACE AND SECURITY; FOOD SECURITY; DEMOCRACY, RIGHTS, AND GOVERNANCE; CLIMATE RESILIENCY; AND HEALTH WERE IMPLEMENTED ACROSS 19 COUNTRIES. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A - IN AFGHANISTAN, COUNTERPART'S AFGHAN CIVIC ENGAGEMENT PROGRAM (ACEP) PROMOTES CIVIL SOCIETY AND MEDIA ENGAGEMENT TO INFLUENCE POLICY, MONITOR GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY, AND ADVOCATE FOR POLITICAL REFORM. ACEP SUPPORTS CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS (CSOS) TO MONITOR GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY AND SERVE AS ADVOCATES FOR POLITICAL REFORM. FY2018 WAS MARKED BY ACCELERATED AND ENHANCED CIVIL SOCIETY ENGAGEMENT WITH THE AFGHAN GOVERNMENT IN PREPARATION FOR THE PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS ON OCTOBER 20TH, 2018. WITH ACEP SUPPORT, THE CIVIL SOCIETY ELECTIONS COORDINATION GROUP (CECG) DEVELOPED INTO AN EFFECTIVE AND INCLUSIVE PLATFORM FOR ELECTIONS-FOCUSED CSOS TO DISCUSS AND ADDRESS A RANGE OF CHALLENGES SUCH AS SECURITY, WOMEN'S PARTICIPATION, VOTER REGISTRATION, AND NATIONAL ID CARD DISTRIBUTION WITH THE ELECTORAL MANAGEMENT BODIES (EMBS) WITH THE AIM TO ENSURE THAT CREDIBLE ELECTIONS ARE HELD. CECG MEMBERS CREATED PARTNERSHIPS TO IMPLEMENT ELECTION OBSERVATION PROJECTS, COORDINATED DEPLOYMENT OF OBSERVERS, AND COOPERATED WITH THE INDEPENDENT ELECTION COMMISSION TO RECRUIT WOMEN AT VOTER REGISTRATION CENTERS AND POLLING CENTERS. THE CECG ALSO BECAME A USEFUL COORDINATION BODY FOR DONOR AGENCIES WORKING ON THE ELECTIONS TO WORK WITH RELEVANT CSOS. CECG MEMBERS CONSISTENTLY STATED THAT HAVING A PLATFORM TO RAISE A UNIFIED VOICE HELPED THEM TO BE MORE INFLUENTIAL IN THE ELECTION PROCESS. ACEP CONTINUED TO STRENGTHEN THE CAPACITIES OF ADVOCACY GROUPS FOCUSED ON ISSUES SUCH AS THE NATIONAL BUDGET, FAMILY LAW, AND DISABILITY INCLUSION, WHILE FACILITATING THEIR REGULAR ENGAGEMENT WITH THE GOVERNMENT TO ADVANCE CONSENSUS AND REFORMS. WITH TECHNICAL SUPPORT FROM ACEP, THESE ADVOCACY GROUPS AND NETWORKS DEVELOPED INTO MORE COHERENT AND ROBUST ENTITIES THROUGHOUT 2018. THEY ARE NOW ABLE TO PLAN STRATEGICALLY AND PRIORITIZE TASKS THROUGH ENHANCED INTERNAL SYSTEMS AND OPERATING PROCEDURES - INCLUDING ELECTIONS, EXPANDED OUTREACH, AND ACCOUNTABILITY WITH THEIR CONSTITUENTS. ACEP'S MAJOR EXTERNAL ACTIVITIES INCLUDED THE FRAMEWORK FOR COOPERATION CONFERENCE (FCC) ON MAY 7-9, 2018, HELD IN RESPONSE TO SECTORIAL LEVEL CHALLENGES HIGHLIGHTED BY PRESIDENT ASHRAF GHANI DURING THE NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON NGOS IN MARCH 2018; AND A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE NATIONAL BUDGET, HELD WITH KEY MINISTRIES ON MAY 22, WITH THE AIM TO INCREASE CIVIL SOCIETY'S OVERSIGHT ROLE OF THE NATIONAL BUDGET LAW. - IN AZERBAIJAN, COUNTERPART WORKS ON IMPROVING THE STATUS OF WOMEN BY RAISING PUBLIC AWARENESS ON ISSUES THAT AFFECT THEM, INCLUDING IMPROVING THEIR ABILITY TO AFFECT KEY GOVERNMENT POLICIES, EMPOWERING MORE WOMEN TO ENGAGE IN THE POLITICAL PROCESS, AND STRENGTHENING THE CAPACITY OF CIVIC AND STATE ORGANIZATIONS TO ADDRESS WOMEN'S ISSUES. FY2018 FOCUSED PRIMARILY ON IMPROVING THE STATUS OF WOMEN IN AZERBAIJAN THROUGH A MORE PERSONALIZED MENTORING PROGRAM THAT TRAINED YOUNG WOMEN AT ALL LEVELS OF SOCIETY, ESPECIALLY THOSE STRUGGLING ECONOMICALLY. COUNTERPART'S WOMEN'S PARTICIPATION PROGRAM (WPP) WAS ABLE TO IMPLEMENT SEVERAL ACTIVITIES DESPITE THE RESTRICTIVE POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT, INCLUDING SEVERAL SUCCESSFUL ACTIVITIES VIA SERVICE CONTRACTS, RESULTING IN ADDITIONAL PROGRAM FUNDING FROM THE EMBASSY OF LITHUANIA IN AZERBAIJAN, A NON-USG DONOR. - ON APRIL 20 2018, USAID AND DFID AWARDED COUNTERPART A $7M, FIVE-YEAR PROJECT IN BANGLADESH ENTITLED PROMOTING ADVOCACY AND RIGHTS (PAR). PAR'S GOAL IS TO STRENGTHEN THE ENABLING ENVIRONMENT FOR SUSTAINED CIVIL SOCIETY INSTITUTIONS ADVANCING DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE AND CITIZEN PARTICIPATION. BY THE END OF THE PROJECT, PARTICIPATING CSOS WILL HAVE THE SKILLS, TECHNOLOGY, RESOURCES, AND CONNECTIONS THAT WILL ENABLE THEM TO WORK IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE GOVERNMENT OF BANGLADESH TO ADVANCE INCLUSIVE, TRANSPARENT, AND RESPONSIVE GOVERNANCE. IN SEPTEMBER, COUNTERPART RENEWED ITS REGISTRATION WITH THE NGO AFFAIRS BUREAU OF BANGLADESH AND IS AWAITING OFFICIAL PROJECT REGISTRATION. PAR SUBMITTED ALL REQUIRED USAID DELIVERABLES REQUIRED BY THE PROJECT'S FIRST WORK PLAN AND SOLIDIFIED RELATIONSHIPS WITH PAR PARTNERS: THE WAVE FOUNDATION AND THE INTERNATIONAL CENTER FOR NOT-FOR-PROFIT LAW (ICNL). PAR ALSO BEGAN PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION BY CONDUCTING SEVEN CIVIC ENGAGEMENT FORUMS (CEFS) IN FARIDPUR, BARISHAL, RAJSHAHI, MYMENSINGH, SYLHET, RANGPUR, AND CHITTAGONG WITH 246 PARTICIPANTS; 77 WERE FEMALE, 160 WERE MALE, AND 9 WERE OF OTHER GENDERS. IN THE CEFS, CSO REPRESENTATIVES AND CITIZEN-ACTIVISTS IDENTIFIED IMPORTANT ISSUES THAT AFFECT THE LIVES OF THOSE IN THEIR COMMUNITIES, PRIORITIZED THEM IN TERMS OF POTENTIAL FOR ADVOCACY, AND ASSESSED THEIR OWN ADVOCACY CAPACITY AND NETWORKING POTENTIAL. IN OBSERVING THE CEFS, THE PAR TEAM FAMILIARIZED THEMSELVES WITH ACTIVE CSOS IN THE SELECTED GEOGRAPHIC DISTRICTS AND ASCERTAINED THE MOTIVATION, TRAINING, AND CAPACITY-BUILDING NEEDS OF THE PARTICIPANT ORGANIZATIONS, TO BE UTILIZED IN FUTURE PROGRAM PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION. - IN 2015, USAID AWARDED COUNTERPART A $15M, THREE-YEAR PROJECT IN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO (DRC) ENTITLED CONGO DEMOKRASIA, WHICH AIMS TO PROMOTE CONGOLESE CITIZENS' INFORMED VOTING AND ACTIVE AND PEACEFUL PARTICIPATION IN ELECTIONS THAT WERE ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED TO TAKE PLACE BETWEEN 2015-16, DELAYED UNTIL DECEMBER 2017, AND THEN AGAIN UNTIL DECEMBER 2018. TO ACCOMMODATE THOSE DELAYS, THE PROJECT WAS EXTENDED UNTIL MAY 2019 AND THE AWARD AMOUNT INCREASED TO A TOTAL OF $19.9M. THE CONGO DEMOKRASIA PROJECT IS ORGANIZED AROUND TWO RESULTS: (1) STRENGTHENING THE CAPACITY OF TARGETED CSOS TO PROVIDE CIVIC AND VOTER EDUCATION THAT MOBILIZES CITIZENS TO ENGAGE IN THE ELECTORAL PROCESS; AND (2) INCREASING CONGOLESE CITIZENS' UNDERSTANDING OF THE ELECTORAL PROCESS. AS OF THE END OF SEPTEMBER 2018, COUNTERPART HAS ISSUED 38 CIVIC AND VOTER EDUCATION SUB-GRANTS AND 38 IN-KIND GRANTS TO CARRY ON ITS CIVIC VOTER EDUCATION ACTIVITIES. THE SUB-GRANTS BOLSTER COUNTERPART'S CAPACITY TO ENABLE CSOS, THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO'S ELECTORAL COMMISSION (CENI), AND LOCAL AUTHORITIES TO HAVE ENRICHING EXCHANGES WITH VARIOUS COMMUNITIES NOT ONLY IN KINSHASA, BUT ALSO IN THE SIX OTHER TARGET PROVINCES: BUKAVU, GOMA, KISANGANI, LUBUMBASHI, MBANDAKA, AND MBUJI MAHI. AN IMPORTANT COMPONENT OF THE PROGRAM IS A MEDIA CAMPAIGN. THROUGH OUR PARTNER FONDATION HIRONDELLE, THE MEDIA CAMPAIGN HAS EXPANDED TO 97 LOCAL RADIO STATIONS AND - AS OF SEPTEMBER 2018 - REACHED NEARLY 11 MILLION PEOPLE WITH THE PROGRAM'S MESSAGING. THE MAJORITY OF COUNTERPART'S WORK IS BEING DONE THROUGH FACE-TO-FACE SENSITIZATION SESSIONS, REACHING 377,851 PEOPLE THROUGH THIS CAMPAIGN DURING THE LAST QUARTER OF THE FISCAL YEAR. - IN MARCH 2017, DRL ISSUED AMENDMENT 1 TO THE AWARD AGREEMENT TO EXTEND THE PROJECT SCOPE OF WORK AND TO ADD ADDITIONAL FUNDING OF $987,654. SUBSEQUENTLY, IN JULY 2018, THROUGH AMENDMENT 3, DRL EXPANDED THE PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE OF THE AWARD THROUGH SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 AND INCREASED THE VALUE OF THE AWARD BY $888,888 FOR A NEW OVERALL TOTAL AWARD AMOUNT OF $2,569,611. THIS AWARD COMPLEMENTS THE USAID PROGRAMMING AND SIMILARLY AIMS TO INCREASE CITIZEN PARTICIPATION, ESPECIALLY OF MARGINALIZED POPULATIONS, IN THE UPCOMING ELECTORAL PROCESS. IN LATE 2016, COUNTERPART SIGNED GRANTS WITH THREE LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS - COMMISSION EPISCOPALE JUSTICE ET PAIX (CEJP), COMITE NATIONAL FEMME ET DEVLOPPEMENT (CONAFED), AND FONDS POUR LES FEMMES CONGOLAISES (FFC) - THAT HAVE TARGETED MARGINALIZED GROUPS IN FIVE PROVINCES THAT HAVE BEEN PARTICULARLY DISENFRANCHISED. AS OF FY2018, COUNTERPART HAS REACHED 803,382 PEOPLE WITH ITS CIVIC EDUCATION EFFORTS, EXCEEDING ITS GOAL. IN ADDITION, COUNTERPART PRODUCED 480,425 CIVIC EDUCATION TOOLS FOR DISTRIBUTION WITH U.S. GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE DURING THE LAST FISCAL YEAR, ALSO EXCEEDING ITS GOAL. COUNTERPART CONTINUES TO BE WELL-POISED UNDER THIS AWARD TO CONTINUE ITS IMPORTANT EDUCATION AND PEACEBUILDING INITIATIVES AHEAD OF AN ANTICIPATED DECEMBER 2018 ELECTION. - IN ECUADOR, COUNTERPART IS IMPLEMENTING THE CIVIL SOCIETY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, WORKING WITH THREE LOCAL CSOS TO INCREASE TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY AT THE NATIONAL AND MUNICIPAL LEVELS, FOSTER DIVERSE PARTICIPATION AND ENGAGEMENT, AND INCREASE THE ABILITY OF CSOS TO OPERATE COHESIVELY AND EFFECTIVELY. IN 2018, COUNTERPART AND ITS LOCAL PARTNERS WORKED TO SIGNIFICANTLY ENHANCE ECUADOR'S POLITICAL PROCESS BY SEEKING TO REFORM RELEVANT DEMOCRATIC INSTITUTIONS. WITH COUNTERPART'S SUPPORT AND THROUGH ONLINE AND FACE-TO FACE EVENTS, PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS FOSTERED AN INFORMED ELECTION WHERE MORE THAN 1,300,000 CITIZENS VOTED ON POLITICAL AND INSTITUTIONAL REFORMS EARLY IN THE YEAR. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A ONCE REFORMS WERE APPROVED BY THE CITIZENRY, COUNTERPART'S PROGRAM ALSO FOSTERED THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SELECTED REFORMS. IN ADDITION, COUNTERPART CONTINUED TO STRENGTHEN THE CAPACITY OF MUNICIPALITIES, CSOS, AND POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS FOR CITIZEN PARTICIPATION IN PUBLIC MANAGEMENT AND STRENGTHENED CITIZEN OVERSIGHT INCLUDING SUPPORT FOR A RIGOROUS TECHNICAL EVALUATION PROCESS TO DETERMINE THE LEVEL OF COMPLETION THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT WAS ABLE TO ACHIEVE ON ITS PROMISES MADE DURING THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN. FINALLY, COUNTERPART FURTHER ADVANCED ITS GOAL OF PROMOTING AN ENABLING LEGAL ENVIRONMENT FOR CIVIL SOCIETY BY HELPING THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY ESTABLISH A PARLIAMENTARY GROUP TO PROMOTE CITIZEN PARTICIPATION AND CSO INITIATIVES, MARKING AN IMPORTANT MILESTONE IN DEEPENING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE LEGISLATURE AND CIVIL SOCIETY. IN IMPLEMENTING THESE INITIATIVES, COUNTERPART TRAINED MORE THAN 200 INDIVIDUALS; ASSISTED MORE THAN 180 CSOS, SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS, AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES; AND STRENGTHENED EIGHT NETWORKS COMPOSED OF CSOS, ACADEMIA, YOUTH, AND PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS. - IN GUATEMALA, COUNTERPART CONTINUED IMPLEMENTATION OF THE USAID-FUNDED PARTICIPACION CIVICA PROJECT. THE FIVE-YEAR, $25M PROJECT INTENDS TO STRENGTHEN AND DEVELOP THE INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY OF CSOS IN GUATEMALA TO PLAY A MORE EFFECTIVE ROLE IN ADDRESSING ACCOUNTABLE GOVERNANCE AND CORRUPTION ISSUES. THIS YEAR, THE PROJECT PROVIDED TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO 706 PEOPLE FROM 240 CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS ON ISSUES RELATED TO TRANSPARENCY, OPEN GOVERNMENT, AND SOCIAL AUDITING. TRAININGS WERE ALSO PROVIDED TO 486 OFFICIALS FROM 55 GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONS ON OPEN GOVERNMENT TRANSPARENCY AND ACCESS TO INFORMATION. SIX TRANSPARENCY/ANTI-CORRUPTION POLICIES RELATED TO OPEN DATA, CODES OF ETHICS, MEDICAL PROCUREMENT, ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISMS, TELECOMMUNICATIONS LAWS, AND CODES OF COMMERCE WERE SUPPORTED BY THE PROJECT, THREE OF WHICH WERE APPROVED BY RELEVANT GUATEMALAN LEGISLATIVE OR REGULATORY INSTITUTIONS FOR INCORPORATION INTO THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK. FURTHERMORE, PARTICIPACION CIVICA CONTINUED THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SEVERAL GRANTS AND ISSUED THREE NEW GRANTS IN FY18. ADDITIONALLY, THE PROJECT CONTINUED TO SUPPORT THE OPEN GOVERNMENT PARTNERSHIP TECHNICAL ROUNDTABLE MEETINGS AND THE FINALIZATION AND CONCLUSION OF THE 3RD OPEN GOVERNMENT NATIONAL ACTION PLAN, AS WELL AS THE CO-CREATION OF THE 4TH NATIONAL ACTION PLAN IN COORDINATION WITH THE CSO NETWORK FOR OPEN GOVERNMENT AND RELEVANT GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONS, SUCH AS THE OPEN GOVERNMENT POINT OF CONTACT. - IN HAITI, COUNTERPART CONTINUED THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ITS USAID-FUNDED PROGRAM, KONBAT VYOLANS, LED BY PRIME AWARDEE AYITI NEXUS AND IMPLEMENTED AS A FIXED-AMOUNT AWARD BY COUNTERPART. THE PROGRAM AIMS TO ENHANCE THE FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY OF THREE LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS IN HAITI CURRENTLY WORKING TO COMBAT GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE OF WOMEN AND GIRLS. DURING FY18, COUNTERPART LED THE ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF ONE-YEAR FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY ACTION PLANS (FSAPS) AND PROVIDED TARGETED TRAINING AND TAILORED ASSISTANCE ON FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY THEMES AND BEST PRACTICES VIA IN PERSON AND REMOTE SUPPORT SESSIONS TO ASSIST THE ORGANIZATIONS IN MEETING THEIR GOALS. - IN HONDURAS, COUNTERPART IMPLEMENTED A THREE-MONTH NO-COST EXTENSION ISSUED FOR ITS IMPACTOS PROGRAM IN SEPTEMBER 2017 (INTO FY18). THIS NO-COST EXTENSION WAS ISSUED TO COMPLETE THE IMPLEMENTATION ACTIVITIES THAT FOCUSED ON IMPROVING CIVIL SOCIETY EFFECTIVENESS TO ADVOCATE FOR TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY OF PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS AND ENHANCING PUBLIC INSTITUTION CAPACITY TO ADDRESS GAPS IN THE ENABLING ENVIRONMENT FOR TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY. DURING THE EXTENSION PERIOD, COUNTERPART COMPLETED THE FINAL EVALUATION OF THE PROGRAM ENTITLED "EVALUATION OF CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS AND PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION IN HONDURAS." IN ADDITION, THE PROGRAM CONCLUDED OPERATIONAL CLOSE-OUT ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROGRAM, INCLUDING COMPLETING CLOSE OUT OF 19 GRANTS ISSUED TO LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS IN THE AMOUNT $2 MILLION FOR ACTIVITIES THAT RANGED FROM TRAININGS AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE, RESEARCH AND ADVOCACY, PUBLIC INFORMATION, AND NATIONAL GOVERNMENT OVERSIGHT. COUNTERPART ALSO PREPARED ITS FINAL TECHNICAL AND FINANCIAL REPORTS FOR USAID. - COUNTERPART INTERNATIONAL HAS PARTNERED WITH MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL (MSI) TO IMPLEMENT THE BALADI CAP PROGRAM IN LEBANON, WHICH HAS THREE MAIN COMPONENTS: 1) CAPACITY BUILDING; (2) CIVIC ENGAGEMENT FOR DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE; AND (3) CIVIC ENGAGEMENT. TO DATE, BALADI CAP HAS CONCLUDED ALL CAPACITY BUILDING TRAININGS AND ON-THE-JOB TRAININGS FOR PARTNER CSOS AND IS PERIODICALLY MONITORING AND REVIEWING COMPLIANCE. THE BALADI CAP TEAM HAS ALSO FINALIZED ITS INTERVENTIONS UNDER THE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT SUB-COMPONENTS FOR SPECIFIC PARTNER CSOS, IN ADDITION TO CONCLUDING MONITORING AND EVALUATION INTERVENTIONS. BALADI CAP HAS CONVENED A STEERING COMMITTEE OF LEADING CSOS AND CIVIL SOCIETY EXPERTS THAT IS HELPING TO GUIDE THE PLANNING, DEVELOPMENT, AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CSO GOVERNANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY, WHICH WILL BE HELD IN FEBRUARY 2019, AND HAS LAUNCHED A CALL FOR WHITE PAPERS IN DESIGNATED TOPIC AREAS OF PRIORITY INTEREST TO THE FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF THE CIVIL SOCIETY SECTOR IN LEBANON. UNDER THE CIVIC ENGAGEMENT FOR DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE COMPONENT, BALADI CAP'S TEAM OF FIVE INTERMEDIATE SUPPORT ORGANIZATIONS/SERVICE PROVIDERS (ISO/SPS) ACHIEVED SIGNIFICANT BREAKTHROUGHS IN MEETING THEIR TARGETS AND OBJECTIVES. THROUGH BALADI CAP'S USG PRIORITY FUND GRANTS, ELIGIBLE BENEFICIARIES HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RECEIVE MUCH NEEDED GOODS AND SERVICES, AS IDENTIFIED BY THE USAID/LEBANON MISSION TO MEET URGENT COMMUNITY NEEDS WITH MORE THAN 95% OF GRANTS IMPLEMENTATION COMPLETED. FINALLY, THE BALADI CAP PROJECT HAS COMPLETED CONDUCTING GENDER MAINSTREAMING SURVEYS TO ITS CSOS AND MUNICIPALITY PARTNERS, THE RESULTS OF WHICH WILL BE PRESENTED THROUGH COMPREHENSIVE REPORTS. - IN MALAWI, COUNTERPART BEGAN IMPLEMENTATION OF THE USAID-FUNDED $12.5M SUPPORTING THE EFFORTS OF PARTNERS (STEPS) PROGRAM IN JUNE 2014. STEPS HAS TWO MAIN COMPONENTS: (1) ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT (OCD) AND (2) SUB-GRANT AWARDS AND MANAGEMENT FOR CSOS WORKING IN THE AREAS OF HIV/AIDS, MALARIA, AND PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES. IN MARCH 2016, THE STEPS PROGRAM RECEIVED A PROGRAM EXPANSION OF $4.3M TO INCLUDE WATER AND SANITATION/HYGIENE (WASH) ACTIVITIES WITH AN EXTENSION TO JUNE 2019. IN FY18, STEPS CONTINUED TO PROVIDE A COMPREHENSIVE PACKAGE OF BOTH TAILORED AND GENERAL CAPACITY BUILDING SUPPORT TO ITS 30 PARTNERS, INCLUDING A NEW DEMOCRACY AND GOVERNANCE PARTNER - THE AFRICAN INSTITUTE FOR DEVELOPMENT POLICY (AFIDEP). TRAINING TOPICS INCLUDED FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT, BOARD TRAINING, COMMUNICATIONS AND REPORT WRITING, HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, AND GENDER AWARENESS AND RESOURCE MOBILIZATION. STEPS ALSO INCREASED ITS OCD PARTNER PORTFOLIO BY THREE CSO PARTNERS: THE MALAWI ELECTORAL SUPPORT NETWORK (MESN), THE MALARIA ALERT CENTER, AND THE MALAWI LOCAL GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION (MALGA). OVER THE COURSE OF THE PROJECT AND INTO FY18, STEPS HAS FOCUSED ON INCLUSIVE STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT, BUILDING LASTING AND COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS, AND FOSTERING A CADRE OF TRANSFORMATIONAL EXPERTS AND LEADERS IN CIVIL SOCIETY. COUNTERPART APPROACHES HIV/AIDS, MALARIA, AND OTHER HEALTH ISSUES AS BEING PART OF A LARGER SOCIOECONOMIC SYSTEM; AS SUCH, ITS MODEL FOR INTERVENTION IS BOTH PARTICIPATORY, TO ENSURE ITS APPROPRIATENESS TO LOCAL CONTEXTS, AND MULTI-SECTORAL, TO PROVIDE HOLISTIC SOLUTIONS FOR TARGETED NEEDS. CONSIDERABLE PROGRESS WAS MADE IN FY18 BY CSOS RECEIVING SUB-GRANTS AND WORKING ON HIV/AIDS, MALARIA, WATER AND SANITATION FOR HEALTH (WASH), AND INITIATIVES TARGETING PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES, INCLUDING: 2,475 INDIVIDUALS WHO WERE NEWLY ENROLLED ON ANTIRETROVIRAL THERAPY (FOR A PROJECT TOTAL OF ALMOST 12,000 INDIVIDUALS); 2,208 MORE PEOPLE LIVING WITH HIV WHO BENEFITED FROM VARIOUS CARE AND SUPPORT SERVICES PROVIDED OUTSIDE A HEALTH FACILITY (FOR A PROJECT TOTAL OF OVER 42,000); 15,054 PEOPLE WERE REACHED WITH MALARIA MESSAGES; 42,008 PEOPLE WERE REACHED WITH WASH MESSAGES; AND 177 COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS WERE TRAINED IN WASH APPROACHES. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A - COUNTERPART'S CIVIL SOCIETY STRENGTHENING PROGRAM (CSSP) IN MOROCCO UNDER THE USAID GLOBAL CIVIL SOCIETY STRENGTHENING LEADER WITH ASSOCIATES AWARD AIMS TO STRENGTHEN CIVIL SOCIETY'S INFRASTRUCTURE AND INDIVIDUAL ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITY, WITH THE GOAL OF SUPPORTING CSOS AND COALITIONS THAT ENGAGE IN ADVOCACY INITIATIVES. STARTED IN JANUARY 2015, THE PROGRAM ORIGINALLY HAD AN AWARD CEILING OF $17.3M AND WAS SLATED TO END IN JANUARY 2019. IN OCTOBER 2018, HOWEVER, THE USAID/MOROCCO MISSION EXTENDED THE AWARD'S PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE THROUGH JULY 2019, BUT ALSO DECREASED THE AWARD'S OVERALL VALUE TO $16.4M DUE TO A LACK OF AVAILABLE FUNDS AT THE MISSION. CSSP PROVIDES TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE IN POLICY ADVOCACY, LEGAL FRAMEWORK DEVELOPMENT, GOVERNMENT-CSO DIALOGUE, AS WELL AS TAILORED CAPACITY BUILDING TO BOTH LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND CSOS (LOCAL GRANTEES, COALITIONS, AND USAID-FUNDED INTERMEDIATE SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS) IN TARGET REGIONS. IN FY18, CSSP CONCENTRATED ITS ACTIVITIES ON PROVIDING THE USAID-FUNDED INTERMEDIATE SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS (ISOS) WITH THE TOOLS THEY NEED FOR EFFECTIVE ORGANIZATIONAL GROWTH, AS WELL AS HELPING THEM POSITION TO TAKE THE LEAD IN DESIGNING AND IMPLEMENTING ACTIVITIES THAT SERVE THE NEEDS OF THEIR BENEFICIARIES AND PARTNER NGOS. IN ADDITION, CSSP DEVELOPED GUIDES COVERING THE TOPIC OF CSO AND CITIZEN INCLUSION IN PUBLIC POLICYMAKING, WHICH WAS APPROVED BY THE MINISTRY OF INTERIOR IN JUNE 2018 AND WILL BE DISTRIBUTED IN JANUARY 2019. THE GUIDES ARE INTENDED TO ENSURE THAT CITIZENS AND CIVIL SOCIETY GROUPS ARE INCLUDED IN THE CONVERSATION ABOUT PUBLIC NEEDS. LASTLY, COUNTERPART'S SMALL GRANTS TO CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS AND COALITIONS CONTINUES TO MAKE NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS WITH ADVANCING ADVOCACY EFFORTS THAT ARE RESPONSIVE TO CITIZENS' NEEDS AND INVOLVE LEGITIMATE AND MEANINGFUL INTERACTION WITH GOVERNMENT COUNTERPARTS. IN TERMS OF KEY ACHIEVEMENTS IN FY18, 456 MEMBERS OF CSOS REPORTED USING NEW SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE RECEIVED FROM COUNTERPART IN THEIR WORK; 62 INITIATIVES WERE UNDERTAKEN AT THE LOCAL AND/OR NATIONAL LEVEL BY CSOS ON ENGAGING CITIZENS IN THE PUBLIC POLICY PROCESS; AND 70 PEOPLE RECEIVED GENDER-RELATED TRAINING AS A RESULT OF U.S. GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE. - IN MARCH 2016, USAID AWARDED COUNTERPART A COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF $10.5M TO IMPLEMENT THE FOUR-YEAR PARCERIA CIVICA PARA BOA GOVERNACAO (PCBG) PROGRAM IN MOZAMBIQUE. PCBG'S PURPOSE IS TO STRENGTHEN THE IMPACT OF CIVIC ACTIVISM AND TO IMPROVE ACCOUNTABLE, EFFECTIVE DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE. TO THIS END, COUNTERPART IS PARTNERING WITH MOZAMBICAN CSOS TO ADVOCATE IN THE TARGET SECTORS OF BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION, CLIMATE CHANGE, EDUCATION, EXTRACTIVE INDUSTRIES, HEALTH, TRANSPARENT AND ACCOUNTABLE GOVERNANCE, AND PEACEFUL ELECTIONS. PCBG OVERALL PURPOSE IS SUPPORTED BY THREE INTERRELATED OBJECTIVES: (1) MORE EFFECTIVE ADVOCACY BY PARTNER CSOS IN TARGET SECTORS (2) STRENGTHENED ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE BY PARTNER CSOS AND (3) FACILITATION OF CREDIBLE, PARTICIPATORY, AND PEACEFUL ELECTORAL PROCESSES. UNDER OBJECTIVE ONE, PCBG SUPPORTED CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS TO REALIZE TWO MAJOR POLICY CHANGES IN FY18: CIRCULAR 01-MPD-2013 AND CONSERVATION LAW REGULATION (DECREE NO87/2017). AENA, A PARTNER CSO, DRAFTED A POLICY BRIEF RECOMMENDING REVISIONS TO CIRCULAR 01-MPD-2013, WHICH INCLUDED CALLING FOR THE CREATION OF A MECHANISM FOR GREATER ENGAGEMENT OF CITIZENS IN THE USE OF PUBLIC RESOURCES AND ADVOCATING FOR THE CREATION OF A COMMUNITY FUND TO BETTER MANAGE COMMUNITY RESOURCES. BIOFUND, ANOTHER PCBG PARTNER, CONDUCTED ADVOCACY WORK WHICH RESULTED IN THE INCORPORATION OF THE "NO NET LOS" CONCEPT INTO LAW, WHICH PROVIDES THE LEGAL BASIS FOR THE PROTECTION, RESTORATION, AND COMPENSATION FOR NEGATIVE IMPACTS ON BIODIVERSITY CAUSED BY DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES IN MOZAMBIQUE. PCBG ALSO SUPPORTED AND MOBILIZED ITS PARTNERS ACROSS SECTORS TO ENGAGE IN 14 ACTIVITIES THAT INCREASED GOVERNMENT ENGAGEMENT WITH CITIZENS TO SUPPORT ACCOUNTABLE AND TRANSPARENT GOVERNANCE AND SIGNED AGREEMENTS WITH 17 LOCAL CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS THAT CONTRIBUTED TO IMPROVING THE IMPACT OF CIVIC ACTIVISM, ACCOUNTABILITY, AND EFFECTIVE GOVERNANCE. TO SUPPORT USG/PEPFAR EFFORTS, PCBG SUPPORTED STATION TV SURDO TO IMPLEMENT HIV/AIDS ADVOCACY INITIATIVES TO INCREASE ACCESS OF SERVICES TO PEOPLE LIVING WITH DISABILITIES, AS WELL AS PRODUCE A COMPLEMENTARY POLICY BRIEFING WHICH WAS SHARED AMONG GOVERNMENT DECISION-MAKERS AND RELEVANT MINISTRIES. UNDER OBJECTIVE TWO, PCBG FACILITATED NINE PARTICIPATORY ORGANIZATIONAL ASSESSMENTS AIMED AT IDENTIFYING GRANTEE INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT NEEDS AND PRIORITIES BASED ON SIX FUNCTIONAL AREAS. PCBG ALSO WORKED WITH CSOS TO INCORPORATE GENDER AND SOCIAL INCLUSION PRINCIPLES ACROSS ORGANIZATIONAL POLICIES AND IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ACTIVITIES. AS PART OF PCBG'S EFFORTS TO STRENGTHEN ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE, THE PROGRAM FACILITATED A FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY TRAINING FOR 12 PARTNERS. ALL PARTNERS DEVELOPED ACTION PLANS TO SECURE NEW REVENUE STREAMS. BY Q4, FOUR ORGANIZATIONS SECURED ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL RESOURCES. IN THE LEAD-UP TO THE 2018 MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS, UNDER OBJECTIVE THREE, PCBG WORKED WITH SIX PARTNER CSPS AND TRAINED 120 MONITORS FROM THREE REGIONS. PCBG ALSO WORKED CLOSELY WITH THE ELECTION WORKING GROUP, HOSTED BY USAID, TO ENGAGE INTERNATIONAL DONORS IN MONITORING ACTIVITIES. TO ENCOURAGE THE POLITICAL PARTICIPATION OF WOMEN, PCBG WORKED WITH MARCHES ACROSS MOZAMBIQUE. ABOUT 3,500 PEOPLE ATTENDED THESE MARCHES. PCBG SUPPORTED PEACEFUL AND CREDIBLE ELECTIONS BY PARTNERING WITH CSOS TO CONDUCT FIVE RADIO PROGRAMS FOCUSED ON RAISING AWARENESS OF VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN AND WORKING WITH GRASSROOTS MEMBERS OF THE RAPID RESPONSE AND RECONCILIATION COMMITTEES TO CONDUCT FIFTEEN COORDINATION MEETINGS. - IN NIGER IN FEBRUARY 2016, COUNTERPART LAUNCHED AN $18M, FIVE-YEAR PROGRAM, THE USAID-FUNDED PARTICIPATORY, RESPONSIVE, GOVERNANCE - PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY (PRG-PA). THE PROGRAM WAS DESIGNED TO IMPROVE COLLECTIVE (GOVERNMENT AND CITIZEN) RESPONSIVENESS TO PRIORITY PUBLIC NEEDS, BY IMPROVING THE CAPACITY OF STAKEHOLDERS - INCLUDING CSOS, TRADITIONAL AND RELIGIOUS LEADERS, GOVERNMENT REPRESENTATIVES, POLITICAL PARTIES, THE MEDIA, CULTURAL ARTISTS, AND PRIVATE SECTOR ACTORS - TO IDENTIFY AND EXAMINE THE LOCAL DYNAMICS THAT EITHER BLOCK OR PROMOTE REFORM AND TO ENACT MEASURES SUPPORTING LOCAL SOLUTIONS TO ENHANCE THE PUBLIC GOOD. THE PROGRAM FOCUSES ITS EFFORTS IN FOUR REGIONS OF THE COUNTRY - NIAMEY, AGADEZ, DIFFA, AND ZINDER. ITS FIVE-YEAR PLANNED OUTCOMES ARE: (1) ELECTIONS ARE MORE RESPONSIVE TO PRIORITY PUBLIC NEEDS (2) INFORMED MULTI-STAKEHOLDER (GOVERNMENT AND NON-GOVERNMENT) CONTRIBUTION TO SPECIFIC ELEMENTS OF REFORM IMPLEMENTATION FOR TARGETED CITIZEN PRIORITIES AND (3) INCREASED CAPACITY OF KEY ACTORS TO PROMOTE COLLECTIVE ACTION IN THE EDUCATION, HEALTH, AND SECURITY SECTORS. IN FY18, THE PROGRAM CREATED TWO POWER MAPPING DIAGRAMS OF THE HEALTH AND EDUCATION SECTORS WHICH HELPED IDENTIFY PUBLIC, PRIVATE, AND SOCIAL SECTOR STAKEHOLDERS AND GRAPHICALLY MAP THEIR RELATIVE POWER AND INFLUENCE. THIS MAPPING HELPED INFORM TRAINING FOR 12 MASTER DIALOGUE FACILITATORS ON ASSET-BASED COMMUNITY MOBILIZATION, CROSS-CULTURAL COMMUNICATION, AND DIALOGUES FOR SOCIAL, POLITICAL, AND POLICY CHANGE, PLANNING FOR 46 COMMUNAL MULTI STAKEHOLDER DIALOGUES (MSDS) TARGETING 1,626 PARTICIPANTS (OF WHICH 25.77% WERE WOMEN). DURING THIS FISCAL YEAR, THE PROGRAM ALSO ORGANIZED SEVEN REGIONAL MSDS: TWO SESSIONS IN NIAMEY, DIFFA, AND ZINDER, PLUS ONE IN AGADEZ, WHERE THE MSDS ON HEALTH AND EDUCATION WERE COMBINED INTO ONE SESSION. 70 MONITORING SESSIONS OF THE MSD ACTION PLANS WERE HELD IN DIFFA, AGADEZ, ZINDER, AND NIAMEY THROUGH TRAINED CITIZEN MONITORING COMMITTEES. THE PROGRAM PRODUCED 23 MAGAZINES ON CITIZENS' PRIORITIES IN BOTH HEALTH AND EDUCATION, COVERED 36 DIALOGUES THROUGH RADIO PARTNERS, AND CONDUCTED 54 ROUNDTABLES IN FOUR INTERVENTION REGIONS. TO FURTHER INCREASE THE CAPACITY OF KEY ACTORS TO PROMOTE COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRG-PA TRAINED NINE JOURNALISTS ON TECHNIQUES TO ADDRESS SECURITY AND DEFENSE ISSUES, BROADCAST 12 HEALTH AND EDUCATION MESSAGES PRODUCED BY TRADITIONAL AND RELIGIOUS LEADERS, AND MENTORED MORE THAN 10 MEDIA ACTORS IN INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM. THE PROGRAM ALSO ISSUED EIGHT NEW SUB GRANTS TO FIVE LOCAL CSOS ON ADVOCACY AND SOCIAL PARTNERSHIP. THE PROGRAM ALSO CLOSELY WORKED WITH THE GOVERNMENT OF NIGER, PROVIDING SUPPORT TO THE MINISTRY OF PRIMARY EDUCATION IN NEGOTIATIONS WITH TEACHER UNIONS TO DEPLOY 1,780 ADDITIONAL TEACHERS FROM NIAMEY TO OTHER REGIONS AND RESTRUCTURED 22 FORUM RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE DIALOGUE MONITORING COMMITTEES TO BECOME OFFICIAL CITIZENS MONITORING COMMITTEES. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A IN 2017, COUNTERPART CONDUCTED A STUDY OF THE APPLICATION OF USAID'S COLLABORATING, LEARNING, AND ADAPTING (CLA) APPROACH TO ITS PRG-PA PROGRAM IN NIGER. ALTHOUGH THE STUDY WAS LIMITED BY SEVERAL FACTORS, SOME ENCOURAGING LESSONS STILL EMERGED. THE STUDY SUGGESTED A HIERARCHY OF PRACTICES IN THE CLA APPROACH. SOME ELEMENTS OF THE CLA APPROACH MUST BE SOLIDLY ESTABLISHED BEFORE MORE ADVANCED ACTIVITIES ARE CONDUCTED. TEAM REFLECTION ACTIVITIES, FOR EXAMPLE, SHOULD ONLY BE UNDERTAKEN AFTER MORE FOUNDATIONAL ENABLING CONDITIONS ARE ESTABLISHED. THE STUDY ALSO FOUND EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT THE IDEA OF STRATEGIC COLLABORATION. TEAMS REFLECTED POSITIVELY ON COLLABORATIVE EXPERIENCES, EVEN WHEN THE EXPERIENCES THEMSELVES WERE HAMPERED BY WASTED RESOURCES AND DELAYED IMPLEMENTATION. REGARDING THE STUDY'S ORIGINAL RESEARCH QUESTION, "HOW DOES THE CLA APPROACH AFFECT DEVELOPMENT OUTCOMES?" WE FEEL THAT ADDITIONAL RESEARCH IS WARRANTED: WHILE THERE WERE ENCOURAGING RESULTS, THE CLA APPROACH MERITS BROADER STUDY BEFORE MORE DEFINITE CONCLUSIONS CAN BE REACHED. - THE CIVIL SOCIETY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM (CSDP) IN SUDAN WAS A SIX-YEAR (SEPTEMBER 2011 - DECEMBER 2017), $7.8M PROJECT AIMED AT PROMOTING A VIABLE AND INCREASINGLY DEMOCRATIC SUDAN. CSDP HAD TWO PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: (A) PROMOTE AND BUILD A VIBRANT CIVIL SOCIETY THROUGH INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY STRENGTHENING, NETWORKING, AND ACCESS TO FUNDING TO HELP CSOS ADDRESS DEMAND FOR GOOD GOVERNANCE AND DEMOCRATIC PARTICIPATION; AND (B) PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR YOUTH-LED INITIATIVES, YOUTH SERVING ORGANIZATIONS (YSOS), AND YOUTH ENGAGEMENT IN NATIONAL DIALOGUE FOR PEACE AND RECONCILIATION. THESE EFFORTS HAVE HELPED YOUTH ACCESS AND UTILIZE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSE OF RECONCILIATION DIALOGUE, CONFLICT PREVENTION, AND DEMOCRATIC REFORM. CSDP PARTNERS WERE ACTIVE IN SOME OF THE MOST VOLATILE STATES WITHIN SUDAN: DARFUR, SOUTH KORDOFAN, NORTH KORDOFAN, WEST KORDOFAN, BLUE NILE, KASSALA, AND KHARTOUM. THROUGH THEIR WORK, THESE ORGANIZATIONS AND THEIR BENEFICIARIES GAINED THE CONFIDENCE TO ENGAGE WITH THEIR POLITICAL REPRESENTATIVES IN PEACEFUL AND POSITIVE CONSULTATION. THE PROGRAMS ACHIEVED SUBSTANTIAL RESULTS IN TWO MAJOR AREAS: ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT (OD) AND CIVIC ENGAGEMENT. REGARDING THE OD PROGRAM, 74 CSOS/YSOS RECEIVED DIRECT OD TRAINING AND MENTORSHIP SUPPORT FROM COUNTERPART AND ITS PARTNERS, RESULTING IN ENHANCED OPERATIONAL CAPACITIES IN FINANCIAL, ADMINISTRATIVE, AND HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT. THE PROGRAM ALSO SUCCEEDED IN ESTABLISHING OD MODULES AS A COMPONENT OF MANAGEMENT CURRICULA AT SEVEN SUDANESE UNIVERSITIES, ENSURING THAT STUDENTS FOR YEARS TO COME RECEIVE TRAINING ON HOW TO SELF-ASSESS AND IMPROVE THE ORGANIZATIONS TO WHICH THEY ARE ALIGNED. REGARDING CIVIC ENGAGEMENT OF YOUTH, COUNTERPART ENHANCED THE CAPACITY OF ITS PARTNERS, TRAINING 10 CSOS/YSOS ON NON-PARTISAN APPROACHES TO ENGAGEMENT. THESE TRAININGS ADVOCATED FOR GREATER ENGAGEMENT WITH THE SUDANESE GOVERNMENT ON RELEVANT COMMUNITY ISSUES. SEVEN CSDP PARTNERS SIGNED MEMORANDUMS OF UNDERSTANDING WITH DIFFERENT GOVERNMENT MINISTRIES, UNIVERSITIES, AND THE HUMANITARIAN AID COMMISSION, ESTABLISHING COOPERATION AND SIGNIFICANTLY BRIDGING THE EXISTING GAP BETWEEN CIVIL SOCIETY AND GOVERNMENT. BEYOND ACHIEVING ITS PERFORMANCE TARGETS, CSDP ALSO ENSURED THE SUSTAINABILITY OF ITS ACTIVITIES BEYOND THE PROGRAM END DATE THROUGH THE COUNTERPART NETWORKING INITIATIVE (CNI). THE CNI NETWORK WAS BORN FROM CSDP'S 2013 ADVOCACY AND NETWORKING WORKSHOP AND EXPANDED TO INCLUDE ALL CSDP PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE COMMUNITY-BASED ASSOCIATIONS, TOTALING 121 MEMBERS. IN THE YEARS TO COME, THE NETWORK WILL CONTINUE TO SERVE AS A COORDINATION PLATFORM FOR PARTICIPATING CSOS, ALLOWING THEM TO SHARE EXPERIENCES, BUILD COALITIONS, AND COLLABORATE WITH EACH OTHER ON PROGRAMMATIC ACTIVITIES. - THROUGH THE MANDELA WASHINGTON FELLOWSHIP FOR YOUNG AFRICA LEADERS - YALI, IMPLEMENTED BY COUNTERPART PARTNER INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH AND EXCHANGES BOARD, INC (IREX), MORE THAN 1000 YOUTH LEADERS ACROSS THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA HAVE ACCESS TO LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS, ACADEMIC COURSEWORK, PRACTICUMS, MENTORSHIPS, SPEAKER OPPORTUNITIES, AND NETWORKING AND NETWORK STRENGTHENING. THE 694 FELLOWS WHO PARTICIPATED IN YALI IN 2018 ARE FOCUSED ON DEVELOPING THEIR SKILLS IN BUSINESS AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP, CIVIC LEADERSHIP, AND PUBLIC MANAGEMENT. ONCE GRADUATED FROM THE PROGRAM, YALI FELLOWS JOIN A LARGER AFRICAN LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT NETWORK WHICH IS COMPRISED OF ALMOST 100,000 YOUNG PEOPLE WHO BENEFIT FROM ACCESS TO ONLINE PLATFORMS, IN-PERSON MEETINGS, AND RESOURCE SUPPORT TO FACILITATE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE AFRICAN CONTINENT. - IN SEPTEMBER 2014, COUNTERPART WAS AWARDED THE $5.9M FOSTERING ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY (FACT) PROGRAM IN ZAMBIA UNDER THE USAID GLOBAL CIVIL SOCIETY STRENGTHENING LEADER WITH ASSOCIATES AWARD. THE AWARD WAS MODIFIED IN NOVEMBER 2017 TO EXTEND THE PROGRAM UNTIL MARCH 2020 AND INCREASE FUNDING BY $500K (TO $6.4M) TO SUPPORT INCLUSION OF THE EXTRACTIVE INDUSTRIES TRANSPARENCY INITIATIVE (EITI). THE GOAL OF FACT IS TO IMPROVE THE ENABLING GOVERNANCE ENVIRONMENT OF ZAMBIA BY INCREASING CITIZEN DEMAND FOR EFFECTIVE, TRANSPARENT, AND ACCOUNTABLE SERVICE DELIVERY. FACT ENGAGES A RANGE OF SECTOR-SPECIFIC CSOS TO STRENGTHEN AND INCREASE MEANINGFUL ENGAGEMENT AMONG ZAMBIAN CIVIL SOCIETY, CITIZENS, AND THE STATE. FACT ACTIVITIES SUPPORT TWO KEY OBJECTIVES: (1) STRENGTHEN THE CAPACITY OF LOCAL CSOS TO ENHANCE DELIVERY AND OVERSIGHT OF PUBLIC SERVICE DELIVERY IN THE EDUCATION, HEALTH/HIV, SUSTAINABLE RURAL LIVELIHOODS, AND ENVIRONMENT SECTORS; AND (2) IMPROVE ENGAGEMENT BETWEEN CITIZENS AND GOVERNMENT SERVICE PROVIDERS IN THE EDUCATION, HEALTH/HIV, SUSTAINABLE RURAL LIVELIHOODS, AND ENVIRONMENT SECTORS TO IMPROVE SERVICE DELIVERY. TARGETING THE EASTERN AND LUSAKA PROVINCES IN ZAMBIA, FACT IS PARTNERING WITH 11 CSOS TO IMPROVE THEIR ABILITY TO DEVELOP ADVOCACY STRATEGIES AND SOCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY APPROACHES THAT ENABLE ACTIVE AND BROAD CITIZEN PARTICIPATION. FY18 HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: (1) IN FY18, FACT'S MID-TERM REVIEW REPORTED THAT THE TOOLS, METHODS, AND PROCESSES THAT FACT USES HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO INCREASED ACCOUNTABILITY BY OPENING OPPORTUNITIES FOR CITIZENS TO DIALOGUE AND EXPLORE THE SCOPE OF PUBLIC SERVICES ACROSS SECTORS, (2) IN Q4, FACT SIGNED NEW AGREEMENTS WITH THREE LOCAL PARTNERS AS PART OF THE EITI, WHICH AIMS TO PROMOTE TRANSPARENT RESOURCE USE BY THE EXTRACTIVE INDUSTRIES, (3) EIGHT CSO PARTNERS MOBILIZED 62 COMMUNITIES IN 11 FACT TARGET DISTRICTS TO SUPPORT CIVIL SOCIETY PARTICIPATION ACROSS SECTORS. THESE EFFORTS REACHED 4,609,545 COMMUNITY MEMBERS, AND (4) THREE PARTNER CSPS TRAINED COMMUNITY MEMBERS ON THE COMMUNITY SCORECARD PROCESS, ALLOWING THEM TO IMPLEMENT THE COMMUNITY SCORECARD PROCESS INDEPENDENTLY, MAKE IT MORE SUSTAINABLE WHILE ENSURING LOCAL OWNERSHIP. - THE CIVIL SOCIETY INNOVATION INITIATIVE (CSII), REBRANDED AS INNOVATION FOR CHANGE (I4C), IS A GLOBAL INITIATIVE FUNDED BY USAID AND SWEDISH SIDA, AND CO-IMPLEMENTED WITH THE CIVICUS ALLIANCE. THE GOAL OF CSII IS TO ESTABLISH SEVEN REGIONAL INNOVATION HUBS AROUND THE WORLD TO SUPPORT, STRENGTHEN, AND SUSTAIN CIVIL SOCIETY, ESPECIALLY THOSE ORGANIZATIONS OPERATING IN CLOSED OR CLOSING SPACES. WITH PARTICIPATION FROM CLOSE TO 500 CSOS AND INDIVIDUALS, THE HUBS ARE IN LATIN AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEAN, AFRICA, CENTRAL ASIA, THE MIDDLE EAST AND NORTH AFRICA, SOUTH ASIA, AND EAST ASIA. EACH HUB IS MADE UP OF DOZENS OF LEADING CSOS WORKING TOGETHER TO IMPROVE THE IMPACT OF CIVIL SOCIETY AROUND THE WORLD. IN 2018, THE PROJECT COUNTED FIFTY-FIVE EVENTS CROSS-REGIONALLY THAT WERE CONDUCTED BY THE REGIONAL HUBS AND THE HELPER HUB. THESE EVENTS WERE ATTENDED BY MORE THAN 7,000 NETWORK MEMBERS. SINCE ITS START DATE, THE PROJECT HAS ISSUED 22 GRANTS TACKING ISSUES OF CLOSING CIVIC SPACES AT THE LOCAL AND REGIONAL LEVELS. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A COUNTERPART'S GLOBAL INTERNET FREEDOM INITIATIVE PROVIDES SUSTAINED CAPACITY BUILDING AND DIGITAL SECURITY ASSISTANCE TO CIVIL SOCIETY AND MEDIA. THE PROJECT FOCUSES ON COUNTRIES IN WHICH THE SPACE FOR FREE EXPRESSION, ADVOCACY, AND ONLINE COMMUNICATION IS AT RISK, BUT CRITICAL TO SOCIETAL LIBERALIZATION. THE PROJECT ALSO ENGAGES WITH KEY STAKEHOLDERS TO ADVOCATE FOR OPEN INTERNET GOVERNANCE STANDARDS. IN 2018, THE PROJECT ASSISTED 126 ORGANIZATIONS WITH 494 TECHNICAL ASSISTANCES. THE PROJECT ALSO TRAINED 902 PEOPLE FROM MORE THAN 24 COUNTRIES. IN ADDITION, THE PROJECT EXPENSED $5,918 IN IN-KIND GRANTS, AND AWARDED 4 SMALL TECHNOLOGY GRANTS. THE PURPOSE OF THESE GRANTS WAS TO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OR IMPROVEMENT OF TOOLS AND TECHNOLOGIES THAT BENEFIT THE PROJECT'S LOCAL PARTNERS. IN 2018, COUNTERPART CONTINUED TO STRENGTHEN ITS INTERNET GOVERNANCE AND INTERNET FREEDOM PROJECT COMPONENT BY AWARDING FIVE MONETARY GRANTS TO ADVOCACY ORGANIZATIONS, DEVELOPING AND LAUNCHING FOUR ADVOCACY CAMPAIGNS, AND PRODUCING 11 RESEARCH DOCUMENTS ON INTERNET FREEDOM ISSUES. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D, OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES (CONTINUED): - MACARTHUR FOUNDATION - COASTAL CLIMATE RESILIENCY PROGRAM: UNDER THE MOST RECENT MACARTHUR GRANT, FROM 2016 TO 2018, THE SSA HAS IMPLEMENTED THE COASTAL CLIMATE RESILIENCY PROGRAM (CCRP) FRAMEWORK IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC. THIS PROGRAM COORDINATES SEVERAL INITIATIVES CARRIED OUT BY DIFFERENT PARTNERS AROUND POLICY DIALOGUE, COMMUNITY ACTION, AND YOUTH MOBILIZATION FOR SUSTAINABLE COASTAL COMMUNITIES, AND AIMS TO PROTECT THE DIVERSE CORAL REEF, MANGROVE, AND ASSOCIATED MARINE ECOSYSTEMS THROUGH THE INCLUSION OF COASTAL COMMUNITIES. IN THE FISHERIES IN THE MARINE PROTECTED AREAS COMPLEX OF MONTECRISTI PROVINCE, ON THE NORTHWEST COAST OF THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, OVERFISHING AND THE WIDESPREAD USE OF ENVIRONMENTALLY DAMAGING FISHING PRACTICES HAVE PRECIPITATED A DECLINE IN THE BIODIVERSITY OF THE MARINE COASTAL ECOSYSTEMS AND THREATEN THE LIVELIHOODS OF THE ARTISANAL FISHER AND FISH WORKER FAMILIES IN THE REGION. THIS IS EXACERBATED BY HARMFUL AGRICULTURAL RUNOFF THAT RESULTS FROM UNSUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURAL PRACTICES - PARTICULARLY RICE CULTIVATION - IN THE COASTAL REGION. THIS MOST RECENT SUPPORT FROM MACARTHUR HAS ENABLED THE SUSTAINABLE FISHERIES MANAGEMENT IN THE MONTECRISTI NATIONAL PARK PROGRAM TO PURSUE RESTORED HEALTH OF THIS COASTAL REGION AND SUPPORT THE LIVELIHOODS OF ITS LOCAL FISHERS AND OTHER COMMUNITY MEMBERS. THE PROGRAM HAS MADE REMARKABLE PROGRESS IN PROMOTING SUSTAINABLE FISHING AND FARMING PRACTICES ON SEVERAL DIMENSIONS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE PROJECT HAS BEEN ABLE TO DEMONSTRATE THE ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF ADOPTING SUSTAINABLE RICE PRODUCTION PRACTICES IN THE REGION. IN 2017, GROWERS WHO IMPLEMENTED SUSTAINABLE RICE PRACTICES REPORTED NET BENEFITS OF US$565 PER HECTARE MORE THAN CONVENTIONAL FARMER NEIGHBORS. SINCE THE AVERAGE FARM SIZE IN THE PILOT PROJECT IS 4.7 HECTARES, A FARM FAMILY ADOPTING THE SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES EARNED US$2,656 PER SEASON MORE THAN A CONVENTIONAL FARMER WITH THE PLANTING AREA. SINCE THERE ARE TWO CROPS PER YEAR, THIS EXTRA INCOME WOULD AMOUNT TO US$5,312 PER FAMILY PER YEAR. THERE ARE 400 HECTARES OF SUSTAINABLE RICE IN THE PILOT PROJECT AREA. IT CAN BE CALCULATED THAT AN ADDITIONAL US$452,000 WAS GENERATED IN THE PILOT PROJECT AREA OVER THE COURSE OF 2017. THIS SPEAKS TO MACARTHUR'S WELL-FOUNDED UNDERSTANDING OF THE NECESSITY OF CONSIDERING ECONOMIC INCENTIVES WHEN PURSUING CONSERVATION OBJECTIVES. EDUCATION ON SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE PRACTICES IN THIS REGION WOULD HAVE BEEN OF LIMITED EFFECTIVENESS IF NOT BACKED BY THE ECONOMIC INCENTIVES FOR FARMERS TO INCREASE YIELD, REDUCE COST, AND POTENTIALLY GAIN ACCESS TO PREMIUM VALUE CHAINS. THESE IMPROVED PRACTICES TRANSLATED NOT ONLY TO ECONOMIC BENEFITS FOR THE FARMERS BUT ALSO ACHIEVED MEASURABLE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS. SSA STAFF CONDUCTED A STUDY TO QUANTIFY THE EFFECTS OF THE SET OF CONSERVATION AND INTEGRATED CROP MANAGEMENT PRACTICES IN THE PILOT AREA ON WATER QUALITY OF THE WATERWAY THAT FEEDS THE MANGROVES OF ESTERO BALSA PROTECTED AREA. A SERIES OF MONITORING/SAMPLING STATIONS WERE ESTABLISHED THAT ALLOWED PROJECT TECHNICIANS TO MEASURE THE QUALITY OF THE IRRIGATION WATER ENTERING AND EXITING THE PILOT PROJECT AREA. IN ADDITION, A SAMPLING STATION WAS ESTABLISHED TO MEASURE WATER QUALITY IN THE RIVER DRAIN ADJACENT TO THE PILOT PROJECT AREA. AS THE RICE FIELDS FEEDING THE DRAIN RECEIVED THEIR IRRIGATION WATER FROM THE SAME IRRIGATION CANAL THAT SUPPLIES THE PILOT PROJECT AREA, THIS SERVED AS A USEFUL CONTROL. THE CONCENTRATION OF AMMONIA OF 0.102 MG NH3/L RECORDED IN THE CONTROL IS ON THE THRESHOLD OF BEING HIGHLY TOXIC TO AQUATIC LIFE. A SLIGHT RISE IN TEMPERATURE AND PH, COMBINED WITH A FLUSH OF AMMONIUM SULFATE FERTILIZER ADDED TO THE RIVER COULD CAUSE A MASSIVE FISH KILL. IN CONTRAST, THE CONCENTRATION OF AMMONIA IN THE PROGRAM PILOT AREA WAS MUCH LOWER, AT 0.064 MG NH3/L. THIS IS EVIDENCE THAT THE SET OF CONSERVATION AND INTEGRATED NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES PROMOTED BY THE PROJECT ARE WORKING. IN FISHING, SSA HAS MADE GREAT STRIDES IN BETTER UNDERSTANDING THE MOST SUSTAINABLE (AND, CONVERSELY, MOST HARMFUL) PRACTICES FOR THE MONTECRISTI FISHERIES. THROUGH RIGOROUS RESEARCH IN PARTNERSHIP WITH DARTMOUTH COLLEGE, THE PROJECT HAS BEEN ABLE TO DEVELOP AN INDEX OF SUSTAINABILITY AS IT RELATES TO VARIOUS FISHING PRACTICES, AND TO MORE FULLY UNDERSTAND THE INCENTIVES DRIVING FISHERS TO EMPLOY ONE METHOD OF FISHING OR ANOTHER. THIS UNDERSTANDING HAS ENABLED THE SSA TO PROMOTE PRACTICES THAT ARE SENSITIVE TO THE SPECIFIC ECONOMIC AND OTHER CONSTRAINTS FACING FISHERS AND ALLOWED SSA STAFF TO HELP INDIVIDUAL FISHERS AND THEIR ASSOCIATIONS ACCESS PREMIUM MARKETS FOR THEIR PRODUCT. LASTLY, THROUGH CLOSE COORDINATION WITH LOCAL AND NATIONAL GOVERNMENTAL PARTNERS, THE SSA HAS BEEN ABLE TO WORK WITH COMMUNITIES TO BETTER ENSURE THAT THEIR VOICES ARE HEARD IN DISCUSSIONS CONCERNING CONSERVATION POLICY. ESSENTIAL TO THIS IS ENSURING THAT SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE AND COMMUNITY PERSPECTIVES ARE INTEGRATED IN THE CREATION OF NO TAKE ZONES OR OTHER POLICIES LIMITING FISHING PRACTICES. ALTHOUGH THE LONG-TERM EFFECTS OF THE IMPACTS OF THESE PRACTICES ON CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT ARE UNKNOWN, THE PROJECT HAS BEGUN COLLECTING CATCH DATA ASSOCIATED WITH THE VARIOUS FISHING PRACTICES WHICH WILL BE CRITICAL TO THE SSA'S FUTURE EFFORTS TO PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE FISHING PRACTICES IN THE REGION AND BEYOND. - WALTON FOUNDATION: THE ACCELERATOR TEAM CONDUCTED A CAPACITY BUILDING REVIEW OF THE WALTON FOUNDATION'S OCEANS PROGRAM GRANTMAKING PORTFOLIO AND GENERATED A LIST OF ACTIONS THE PROGRAM COULD TAKE TO IMPROVE THEIR STRATEGY AND SUPPORT TO THEIR GRANTEES. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11B THE FORM 990 WAS COMPLETED BY AN INDEPENDENT CPA FIRM AND REVIEWED BY THE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER (CFO). THE DRAFT WAS PRESENTED TO THE C-SUITE AND THE AUDIT COMMITTEE FOR REVIEW. ANY QUESTIONS/CHANGES WERE COMMUNICATED BY THE C-SUITE AND AUDIT COMMITTEE TO THE CPA FIRM. THE FINAL DRAFT OF THE FORM 990 WAS SUBMITTED TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR APPROVAL BEFORE IT WAS SIGNED BY THE CFO AND FILED WITH THE IRS. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C ALL OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AND KEY EMPLOYEES ARE REQUIRED TO SIGN AN ANNUAL SELF-DISCLOSURE OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST STATEMENT. FURTHERMORE, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND KEY EMPLOYEES ARE REQUIRED TO NOTIFY THE CEO WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DISCOVERY OF A REAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST. SUCH CONFLICTS OF INTEREST MAY INCLUDE PROCUREMENT, HIRING, OR ANY OTHER AREA OF ORGANIZATIONAL INTEREST. THE CEO (AND CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD IN CASES OF DIRECTOR CONFLICTS OF INTEREST) DETERMINES THE APPROPRIATE ACTION FOR THOSE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, OR KEY EMPLOYEES. WITH A CONFLICT OF INTEREST, THIS, AT A MINIMUM, INCLUDES RECUSAL FROM PARTICIPATION IN THE CONSIDERATION OF THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION IN SOME CASES. A CONFLICT OF INTEREST MAY BE DEEMED SO SEVERE AS TO REQUIRE THAT THE INDIVIDUAL IN QUESTION RESIGNS FROM HIS/HER ROLE WITH COUNTERPART INTERNATIONAL. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 THE CEO'S SALARY IS DETERMINED BY THE BOARD. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ESTABLISHING THE COMPENSATION FOR THE CEO. THE COMPENSATION IS DETERMINED BASED ON INDUSTRY REVIEW OF COMPARABLE DATA FROM SIMILARLY SIZED ORGANIZATION, IN THE SAME SECTOR OF ACTIVITIES, IN THE SAME GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION AND OF SIMILAR SIZED OPERATIONAL BUDGETS. COMPENSATION REVIEWS OF THE CEO ARE BASED ON INDUSTRY AVERAGES, COUNTERPART'S FINANCIAL POSITION AND ANNUAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION BY THE BOARD INCLUDING THE ADMINISTRATION OF PERIODIC 360 ASSESSMENTS. EACH SENIOR OFFICER'S SALARY IS DETERMINED BY THE CEO, WHO, IN TURN, BASES HIS/HER DECISION UPON EXTERNAL THIRD PARTY SURVEYS AND ASSESSMENTS. THE LAST COMPENSATION REVIEW WAS DONE IN JANUARY 2018.
