PART X, LINE 2 MANAGEMENT EVALUATED THE ORGANIZATION'S TAX POSITIONS AND CONCLUDED THAT THE ORGANIZATION HAD TAKEN NO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS THAT REQUIRE ADJUSTMENT TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. PART XII, LINE 2D Expenses of $92 for IATP Action which files a seperate 990N PART III, LINE 4A Agriculture and Food Work in 2017 centered on policy research, analysis, outreach and organizing around the transition of presidential administrations, and its implications for the Farm Bill, global agriculture policy, and our food system. Agroecology: IATP continued to advocate internationally for agroecology, a farmer-led system of production that works with nature to produce healthy food. In 2017, IATP concluded and published a report on a participatory research initiative in Mexico with the Asociacin Nacional de Empresas Comercializadoras de Productores del Campo (ANEC) on the political economy of their approach to agroecology, balancing farmers knowledge with scientific advances. Working Landscapes Certificate (WCC) Program: In 2017, IATP continued its cooperation with Stonyfield and other responsible bioplastic users to ensure that their bioplastic use supported farmers in producing corn (the bioplastic feedstock) in more sustainable ways through IATPs WLC program. It was another successful production year, with participating WLC farmers meeting or exceeding production expectations, all while growing corn in more responsible manner. Industrial Meat: In addition to incorporating industrial meat into its climate work, IATP released a report on the meat industry in Brazil titled, The Rise of Big Meat: Brazils Extractive Industry. Farm to Institution: Building on its successful partnership with Community Action Partnership of Ramsey and Washington Counties (CAPRW) Head Start and the Hmong American Farmers Association (HAFA) in 2014 and 2015, in 2017 we expanded our effort to partner with three new Head Start programs across the state to implement our 'Farm to Head Start' program model, serving fresh local foods and teaching children about their local food system. Our 2017 Head Start partners were Tri-valley Opportunity Council Migrant and Seasonal Head Start, Little Falls Tri-county Community Action Head Start, Mora Lakes and Pines Community Action Council Head Start, Willmar United Community Action Partnership Head Start, and Scott County and Dakota County Community Action Partnership Head Start. Working with new Head Start partners allowed us to learn how our model can adapt to different Head Start contexts, allowing us to adjust our model to meet the diverse needs of Head Start programs outside of our original St. Paul partner. We also introduced a bill at the Minnesota Legislature to enact a statewide Farm to School policy, as well as building a coalition of over 90 organizations to support the policy. The bill made it through committee in both chambers but was not included in the final agriculture omnibus bill. Nanotechnology and Synthetic Biology: In 2017, IATP continued to research, write about the risks inherent with application of nanotechnology and synthetic biology technologies in agriculture and advocate for effective exposure science and regulatory measures related to these technologies. In addition to blogs and presentations, we released the report Applying Nanotechnology to Fertilizer: Rationales, Research, Risks, and Regulatory Challenges. PART III, LINE 4B International / Trade and Global Governance Trade: In 2017 IATPs main focus was the re-negotiation of NAFTA. IATP hosted at tri-national meeting of civil society in May in Mexico City, and has attended several negotiating rounds as well as engaging in the limited opportunities for public input. IATP also published a portal of its 25 years of writing on NAFTA and released a report Nafta Renegotiation, Whats at Stake for Food, Farmers, and the Land. Global Governance: IATP also engaged with the UN Committee on World Food Security, working with partners from developing countries to promote agroecology and insist on better rules on land grabs. In 2017 Shiney Varghese was appointed to the CFS High Level Panel of Experts on food security. PART III, LINE 4C Climate Change and Corporate Strategies In 2017, IATPs Climate initiative had several components, all rooted in sustainable land uses and economies that benefit farmers, rural communities and the environment, including the Rural Climate Network, Rural Climate Dialogues, International Climate Policy, the Working Landscapes Certificate program, the Minnesota Green Chemistry Forum. Rural Client Network: The Rural Climate Network is a grouping of organizations that came together to advance practical climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies and share information. In 2017, the Rural Climate Network grew to 50 member organizations. Members of the network share social and technical approaches to climate change among agriculture, forestry, and other natural resource dependent communities. The network documents innovations, best practices, impacts, and other stories on the website www.ruralclimatenetwork.org. Rural Climate Dialogues: In 2017, IATP continued to build work at the community level through the Rural Climate Dialogues. Developed in partnership with the Jefferson Center, these Rural Climate Dialogues are intended to foster conversations in rural communities to help them think critically and plan strategically to address local challenges related to weather, climate and resilience. IATPs first dialogue was in Morris, MN in 2014, and won the 2015 Environmental Initiative award for community engagement. In 2017 IATP has focused on building a resource platform for rural areas to engage with state government on climate change, as well as continuing to work in our three communities, Morris, Winona, and Grand Rapids, to turn the recommendations of the dialogues into policy initiatives, while still maintaining our level of deep community input and engagement. Global Climate Policy: The focus of global climate policy in 2017 was in assessing how the new US presidential administration would affect global climate change work, and to understand the contribution to climate change of the industrial livestock sector. During the COP meeting in Bonn IATP released an infographic assigning, for the first time, Greenhouse Gas emissions footprints to the largest 20 global meat and dairy corporations, which will inform IATPs work into 2018. PART III, LINE 4D Communications IATPs communications work is vital to its program goals and the organizations mission. IATPs programming strategy integrates communication into its objectives, and IATP maintains multiple communication streams to disseminate its work. This includes a website that is a valuable research tool; a social media presence on Facebook and Twitter, with a combined 17,000 followers, that continues to attract new followers and daily interactions; multiple email lists of up to 13,000 subscribers, including press lists, who receive newsletters, action alerts, and press releases. IATP also works in partnership with Public News Service to distribute radio stories that routinely reach over 200,000 listeners. IATP communication staff works closely with program staff to identify the best platforms for distributing their work and to promote that work as strongly as possible. staff works closely with program staff to identify the best platforms for distributing their work and to promote that work as strongly as possible.
