Committee members are expected to undertake planning, execution, and supervision of research and development activities related to new leads in laboratories funded through the Committee. Potential and perceived conflicts of interest are required to be disclosed by written policy and consent. When appropriate and as applicable, those committee members with potential conflicts recuse themselves from funding decisions. Form 990, SCH J, Part I, Lines 2 and 4b Part I: Line 2 There is only one housing allowance authorized as part of the compensation package approved by the Board of Trustees, and paid to the President, who receives it, paid bi-monthly, in addition to the President's annual salary. This is a housing allowance and, as such, it does not require substantiation prior to reimbursement. Part I: Line 4b The Council makes an IRC 457(b) deferred compensation plan available to highly compensated employees on a voluntary contributory basis. Form 990, SCH J, Part II The Council's policies include providing relocation, housing and dependent education allowances to U. S. expatriates and third country national employees hired as international employees from the Council's U.S. headquarters to work at one of the Council's international offices. These benefits are reported as other reportable compensation for U.S. employees and as nontaxable benefits for foreign employees. The Council's policies include providing employees with employer contributions to a defined contribution 403(b) retirement plan. Any employee of the Council other than a non-resident alien with no U.S.-source income is eligible to participate in the Plan. Effective January 2009, changes to the laws that govern contributions to defined contribution 403(b) accounts prevent these employer contributions from being deposited into 403(b) accounts for foreign employees. Therefore, the Council provides the employer contributions directly to the Council's foreign employees and is reported as other reportable compensation. Form 990, Part I, Line 1 The Population Council, Inc. (the Council), an international, not-for-profit, nongovernmental research organization established in 1952, seeks to improve the well-being and reproductive health of current and future generations around the world and to help achieve a humane, equitable, and sustainable balance between people and resources. Since its founding, the Council has conducted path-breaking research to meet the health and development needs of vulnerable women, men, and adolescents in over 50 developing countries. The Council's research in biomedicine, public health, and social science has enabled us to work with researchers, program managers, and policymakers in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. Our research yields the evidence needed to make sound decisions and wise investments in health policies, services, and products that save lives and improve the health of women, children, families, communities, and nations. Population Council researchers work within three program areas: HIV and AIDS; Poverty, Gender, and Youth; and Reproductive Health. HIV and AIDS. The goal of this program is to arrest the spread of HIV in developing countries, especially among the growing number of women and girls affected, and to enable people to mitigate the impact of the disease on their own health and on their families and communities. Council staff members conduct basic research on transmission of HIV and are developing a microbicide to reduce women's risk of HIV infection. The Council also collaborates with programs around the world, especially in Africa, to improve HIV prevention, including testing services and providing care and treatment to people living with HIV. Poverty, Gender, and Youth. The goal is to understand and address the social dimensions of poverty in developing countries. Staff members are studying the critical elements in successful transitions to adulthood, especially the role of education and safe spaces for adolescent girls. The Council is developing and evaluating effective interventions to help girls remain in school or help them return, if they have left school. The Council's work has had a demonstrable impact in Egypt, Guatemala, Kenya, South Africa, and elsewhere. Reproductive Health. The goal is to improve sexual and reproductive health, especially for disadvantaged populations in developing countries. Staff develop and introduce new contraceptives and means to prevent, detect, and treat sexually transmitted infections, help formulate evidence-based policies, and evaluate innovations in service delivery. We collaborate extensively with local and regional governments and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) worldwide to expand access to high-quality health services; increase the options for safe, affordable, and reversible contraception for men and women; and shape policies and programs to improve health outcomes. The Council's fellowship programs have helped advance the careers of social and biomedical scientists, public health researchers, and program managers throughout the world. The work of Council fellows has fostered research and informed the creation of population, health, and development policies and programs. The Council's world-class Center for Biomedical Research, located at Rockefeller University, conducts research in contraception and reproductive health. Researchers are studying the biology of male reproduction and developing new contraceptive technologies. The Council has recently completed clinical trials of our new contraceptive vaginal ring. More than 120 million women worldwide have used Population Council developed methods of contraception, which include the copper-bearing intrauterine devices (IUDs), Jadelle, and Mirena. The Center also develops products to inhibit the transmission of HIV. Population Council researchers advocate for solutions to real-world problems-solutions that are evidence-based, rigorously tested, evaluated, and proven effective. After we demonstrate the effectiveness of a program, we promote its replication and provide technical assistance to scale it up, while informing policymakers of the lessons learned through careful monitoring and evaluation. Using our research findings, other organizations deliver improved and more cost-effective services that reach people most in need. The Council staff consists of approximately 621 women and men from 32 countries, half of whom hold advanced degrees. Roughly 60 percent are based outside of the United States. Council staff members conduct research and programs in more than 50 countries. Research, technical assistance, and capacity building are carried out by the Population Council's U.S. and field offices and its three program areas. Headquarters and the Council's Center for Biomedical Research are located in New York City. We maintain an office in Washington, DC, and an international presence in 15 offices in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. The Population Council is governed by a board of trustees composed of 16 men and women from six countries. This group includes leaders in biomedicine, business, economic development, government, health, international finance, law, the media, philanthropy, and social science. Form 990, Part I, Line 5 Total Numbers of Employees The Council staff consists of 621 women and men from 32 countries. Only 251 of the Council's 621 employees are either based in the United States or are citizens of the United States. The other 370 council employees are non-U.S. citizens based outside of the United States and are therefore not issued a W-2. Form 990, Part III, Line 4a Reproductive Health (RH) The Population Council's Reproductive Health program works to improve the sexual and reproductive health of vulnerable populations in developing countries. Staff develop and introduce new contraceptives and means to prevent, detect, and treat sexually transmitted infections, help formulate evidence-based policies, and evaluate innovations in service delivery. We collaborate extensively with local and regional governments and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) worldwide to expand access to high-quality health services; increase the options for safe, affordable, and reversible contraception for men and women; and shape policies and programs to improve health outcomes. Current RH program priorities include: " Increasing access to family planning and other sexual and reproductive health services, including by addressing sexually transmitted infections and gender-based violence in countries where individuals are unable to achieve their reproductive health goals. " Reducing maternal mortality and morbidity by making pregnancy safer. The Council focuses on women throughout sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia and on the most vulnerable groups in other regions. " Developing and testing new contraceptives and other reproductive health care products to benefit women and men in countries where couples are not achieving their fertility goals. " Evaluating the effectiveness and acceptability of new and improved contraceptive technologies and delivery mechanisms, to ensure that they are responsive to clients' evolving needs. " Ensuring that contraceptives and other reproductive health technologies developed by the Population Council are accessible to people who most need them, by mobilizing and developing collaborative relationships with the private sector and encouraging licensing, registration, and/or manufacturing of the Council's products. 2010 Key RH Accomplishments: 1) Making a difference in Pakistan's national policies and cultural attitudes toward family planning and maternal health Family planning -- including avoiding pregnancies that are unintended, those that come too early in a girl's life or too late in a woman's, or too soon after the birth of the previous child -- can save women and infants from dying from complications of childbirth, children from losing their mothers, and husbands from losing their wives. The Council and its partners, through Pakistan's Family Advancement for Life and Health (FALAH) project, were instrumental in prompting the Ministries of Population and Health to shift the focus of family planning services to birth spacing and client well-being. FALAH improved the quality of maternal and reproductive health services; developed national standards, curricula, and educational materials for family planning; trained medical and paramedical students and community mobilizers; and reached out to women and their families through free consultations in mobile clinics. This project reached more than 500,000 people in three years and the lives of thousands of mothers and their newborns were saved. 2) Improving access to maternal health care in Bolivia A third of the people in Bolivia lack access to health services. With local and international partners, the Population Council conducted research and advocated for changes in service delivery policies and practices to improve maternal health in 70 municipalities. The Council worked with ten obstetric and neonatal emergency networks of health facilities at the municipal and regional levels to increase the coverage and quality of essential services, and to obtain critical equipment for health facilities. It examined ways to strengthen clinical practices that reduce morbidity and mortality, such as by the active management of the third stage of labor to prevent maternal hemorrhage. 3) Delivering birth and care through skilled hands The Population Council and our Kenyan partners developed a pilot project in Western Province to expand the roles and skills of community midwives (CMs). The goal is to increase access to skilled delivery and newborn care and post-delivery family planning services for women in remote or resource-poor areas. The pilot project proved so successful that Kenya's Ministry of Health (MOH) worked with the Council to expand the program and adopt the model as a national policy. We documented the sustainability of the community-based midwifery approach and assisted the MOH in identifying maternal and newborn health services that could be provided by CMs working from home. 4) Preventing eclampsia Council researchers and country partners conducted studies in Kenya, Mexico, and Nigeria to examine barriers to providing and using magnesium sulfate and to increasing its availability. In Nigeria, maternal mortality due to eclampsia decreased by two thirds in the hospitals adopting this innovation, and overall maternal mortality was reduced by 40% in the ten research sites. In Kenya, the Council's study identified barriers to scaling up availability of magnesium sulfate. The Kenyan government used the study results to integrate magnesium sulfate into the country's essential drugs list, which will increase the drug's availability at medical facilities. In Mexico, the Council is investigating why, despite widespread availability and good provider knowledge, magnesium sulfate is inconsistently used. Magnesium sulfate has the potential to dramatically reduce the unacceptably high number of maternal deaths during pregnancy or childbirth. As these three projects demonstrate, research is critical to identifying barriers to using the drug effectively and helping programs increase its availability and use. By increasing availability of treatment, the Council is helping ensure a future where no woman dies of this easily treatable condition. 5) Vouchers for reproductive health care services The Council is evaluating reproductive health voucher programs in Bangladesh, India, Kenya, Uganda, and other countries to determine whether the programs should be scaled up to a national level, what services can be offered most effectively, or whether other financing models would be more effective. Results from a study in rural Bangladesh illustrate the potential of voucher programs; over a nine-month period, the proportion of pregnant women not accessing antenatal care decreased from 21% to 11%, the proportion of women delivering with a skilled attendant increased from 22% to 65%, deliveries at health facilities increased from 2% to 18%, and the proportion of women getting post-natal care increased from 45% to 60%. By working closely with governments and ministry of health staff, the Council is conducting analyses that policymakers can use to determine whether the voucher programs meet the reproductive health needs of the most vulnerable women. If effective, voucher programs could be expanded to reach women who would otherwise never receive family planning, prenatal or postnatal care. Form 990, Part III, Line 4b HIV and AIDS Program The Population Council takes a broad and comprehensive approach to HIV prevention, care, and treatment. The HIV and AIDS program encompasses basic research in immunology; development and introduction of a safe, effective microbicide; social science and health-related research to better understand the social and behavioral aspects of HIV and AIDS; and the development, evaluation, and scale-up of effective service-delivery models. Current HIV program priorities include: " Advancing knowledge of HIV transmission and pathogenesis. " Developing and testing microbicide candidates with multiple mechanisms of action, to protect against the acquisition of sexually transmitted infections including HIV. " Reducing HIV acquisition and transmission by the most vulnerable populations. " Contributing to the elimination of childhood deaths from AIDS. " Increasing access to safe, effective, and affordable HIV prevention technologies. 2010 Key HIV Accomplishments: 1) Making a difference in developing contraceptive products and HIV prevention methods Last year, the Population Council completed the third phase of a multi-center clinical trial for a vaginal contraceptive ring that releases synthetic hormones and can be used for one year. Roughly 2-1/4 inches in diameter, the ring is thin and flexible and is easily inserted into the vagina by the woman herself. This year, the Council achieved a major milestone by licensing the rights to distribute the ring in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. This will facilitate the ring's approval in priority developing countries. 2) Making a difference in preventing HIV in vulnerable populations The need for women-initiated prevention methods to reduce the spread of HIV cannot be overstated, especially with sex workers, who often are at high risk of acquiring HIV and bear the responsibility for protecting themselves. Toward this end, the Council continues research and prepares for the clinical trials of next-generation microbicides. Large-scale clinical trials will depend on recruiting women and keeping them engaged throughout the months of the clinical trials, as well as accurate reporting of whether and how the study product is used. In 2010, the Council introduced and evaluated an innovative way to include female sex workers. Individual women recruited peers, who in turn recruited others. To encourage women to report accurately on sexual behavior and adherence to the placebo product used in the study, traditional face-to-face interviewing was supplemented by asking woman to either use paper post-coital diaries or by completing a voice survey via cell phone. The findings were instructive for the next phase of the studies, which will now look to develop more efficient and productive methods for conducting trials. 3) Reaching men who have sex with men in Nigeria The Population Council conceived and launched the Men's Health Network Nigeria (MHNN), the first national comprehensive program to focus on HIV prevention and other health needs of men who have sex with men (MSM) and other high-risk men such as drug users, transport workers, and uniformed personnel. The Network aims to improve MSM's knowledge of HIV transmission and signs of sexually transmitted infections, use of condoms, and access to appropriate and respectful health care. It mobilizes leaders within the MSM community to deliver HIV prevention messages to their peers and to make referrals to MHNN clinical service providers. The Council has brought the issue of MSM to the forefront in Nigeria and other African countries such as Kenya and Senegal, advocating for their health needs to policymakers and piloting and evaluating programs to deliver services for this overlooked population. MHNN has reached 21,000 high-risk men with HIV prevention messages and tested nearly 7,000 men for HIV. With our partners, the project will continue to expand to at least two additional states, aiming to reach an additional 13,600 men by July 2011, and has the potential to become the largest service delivery program for MSM in sub-Saharan Africa. Form 990, Part III, Line 4c Poverty, Gender, and Youth (PGY) Through the Poverty, Gender, and Youth (PGY) program, Population Council staff members seek to understand the social dimensions of poverty, the determinants and consequences of gender inequality, the disparities that arise during adolescence, and the critical elements of a successful transition to adulthood in developing countries. Program activities also include developing and evaluating innovative programs-especially those related to empowerment, health, education, and livelihoods-to address the needs of the poor, women and youth in particular. Program staff continue the Council's long-standing tradition of providing demographic analysis of the links between population growth and development at the macro and micro levels. Specific activities that illustrate the Population Council's Poverty, Gender, and Youth program include: " Strengthening the evidence base regarding adolescents, especially young women, to increase our ability to assist in program and policy development. " Advancing our understanding of health system functioning, and of poverty, health, and population trends. " Supporting the tools and means to develop and share an evidence base on topics of PGY concern. " Expanding schooling, financial literacy, and livelihoods initiatives. " Supporting emerging issues and maintaining the Population Council's reputation for cutting-edge, innovative work--for example, by developing new tools for sexuality education and urban health 2010 Key PGY Accomplishments 1) 2010 Accomplishments - Making a difference in the sexual health of young people and the future of their countries: Critical thinkers, healthy lives. The Council, in collaboration with six other NGOs, published an innovative resource -- content and activities -- for educators and policymakers, focusing on transforming attitudes and changing behaviors that affect sexual experience. Recognizing that education makes a difference in attitudes about sexuality, gender, HIV, and human rights -- attitudes that are correlated with young people's risk of HIV infection, unintended pregnancy, and intimate partner violence -- the Council and partners designed It's All One Curriculum to emphasize the critical thinking skills necessary for young people to stay healthy, care for themselves and their families. It's All One presents sensitive information appropriate for a wide range of cultural and political settings in Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, Asia, and Europe. 2) Making a difference in the lives of young girls first in Kenya, now in Uganda: More than a thousand girls financially astute and empowered. Adolescent girls from Kampala, Uganda were added to those from the urban slums of Nairobi, Kenya, as participants in the Smart Savings program, where they received a modest stipend, a course in financial literacy, and training from a network of female mentors to bolster their economic skills. Developed by the Council and local financial institutions, the program has benefits that extend beyond simple economics. Savings and knowledge empower the girls to make smart decisions in critical areas like health care and education. They are better able to protect themselves from the risk of robbery, harassment, and sexual violence and more able to plan their financial future. They can now face critical decisions with the confidence that comes with financial literacy skills and the strength that comes with new friendships. 3) Making a difference in preventing and responding to sexual-based violence in East and Southern Africa Our gender-based violence research and advocacy network has increased national partnerships from 8 to 15 and is now working in 9 African countries. An estimated one in every three women worldwide will experience some form of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) in their lifetime. Over the past decade, many African countries began to recognize the importance of preventing gender-based violence and responding to the needs of survivors. Since 2006, the Council has led an Africa-based network to strengthen the evidence base for multi-sectoral programming for SGBV at a national level. By engaging the health sector, police, legal, and social services country by country, the Council's project established services for rape survivors in some countries; in others, it conducted studies to improve hospital services for those who have suffered sexual-based violence; and in others, it now tests the feasibility of working with local police to provide emergency contraception and care with HIV post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for women who have been raped. 4) Making a difference in the lives of migrant girls in Ethiopia Ten thousand girls in five cities participated in Biruh Tesfa ("Bright Future") in 2010. Adolescent girls come to Addis Ababa and other cities from Ethiopian villages, sometimes escaping an early marriage, and hoping for work or schooling. They are young, many under 14 years old. Without families or friends, these girls disappear into the cities' slums. Many girls find domestic work, where they are almost always poorly paid and often abused. Some girls are forced into sex work. The Population Council and the Ethiopian government and NGOs designed a program, Biruh Tesfa, for these otherwise invisible girls to access educational opportunities and health services, develop friendships, and receive vocational training. The program trained female mentors and helped thousands of young girls learn basic literacy skills. It brought girls to health clinics. And it allowed the girls to see the possibility of the future they sought when they first left home. Next year, Biruh Tesfa will reach girls in 12 more Ethiopian cities. Form 990, Part III, Line 4d (See also Attachment 1 in Schedule O) Other Program Service Accomplishments Program development The Council's senior leadership meets regularly to develop strategies for identifying future projects and to test new hypotheses, technologies, and program approaches. Shared activities include capacity building; strengthening professional resources and intellectual leadership among stakeholders and donors by supporting the preparation of scholarly papers and opinion pieces; and program guidance and bi-lateral and multi-lateral consultations. Recognizing the diversity of social and cultural views, the Population Council provides grants and support to individuals and institutions and invests in strengthening the indigenous capacity of countries and regions to conduct their own research and develop appropriate policies. Integral to achieving the Population Council's mission are programs to strengthen the base of well-qualified professionals addressing global population and development issues. In the past half century, more than 2,400 social and biomedical scientists have received fellowship support from Population Council programs. These fellows have played a key role in shaping population policy and programs fostering research in the reproductive sciences. In 2010, Population Council fellowship programs provided advanced training to 24 early-career researchers from around the world, many of whom are likely to be tomorrow's top professionals in this field. Publications The Population Council communicates the results of our work and that of others in the field to people concerned with population and reproductive health issues. The Council publishes and disseminates-for professionals in the field and for general audiences-a wide range of materials that includes books, statistical compendia, conference proceedings, newsletters, working papers, flyers, CD-ROMs, and pamphlets. Most materials are provided at no cost and can be shipped upon request, distributed at conferences and meetings, or downloaded from the organization's Web site. The Council publishes two of the field's leading scholarly, peer-reviewed journals: Population and Development Review and Studies in Family Planning. They are available on a paid subscription basis, and through complimentary subscriptions available to qualified applicants in developing countries. Supplements to Population and Development Review and other books published by the Council are also available for purchase, with payment waived for qualified applicants in developing countries. Staff members publish the findings from their work through numerous print and electronic outlets. In 2010, the Population Council produced over 250 new publications, including Council-published books, reports, working papers, and newsletters, as well as 110 articles in peer-reviewed journals. Council staff members disseminate information using a variety of electronic vehicles, including the Population Council's own Web site at www.popcouncil.org. Currently featuring more than 2,200 publications, articles, and other resources, the site also includes hundreds of descriptions of Population Council projects. In 2010, Council staff members presented their work at over 80 meetings and conferences around the world. We managed exhibit booths at five major forums worldwide. We worked with reporters to share newsworthy research findings and broaden the reach of our dissemination activities. Distinguished Colleagues Four Distinguished Colleagues-three Distinguished Scholars and one Distinguished Scientist-provide additional expertise in areas of relevance to the Council and represent the organization in their fields internationally. One Distinguished Scholar serves as editor of Population and Development Review, a journal he founded in 1975. He also investigates causes and consequences of population change and analyzes public policy debates on population issues. The second Distinguished Scholar serves on the editorial committee of Studies in Family Planning. He also conducts research on a variety of population issues, including the determinants of fertility, population-environment relationships, the demographic impact of the AIDS epidemic, population aging, and population policy options. He also serves as chair of the Council's Institution Review Board, which oversees protection of human subjects in research. The third Distinguished Scholar directs an international program of field studies that is generating empirical evidence on the feasibility of improving quality of care and the effect of care received by women on their subsequent reproductive health and behavior. He has edited, authored, or co-authored five books and approximately 70 research papers on topics related to population policy, fertility, reproductive health and family planning, infant mortality, safety and effectiveness of contraceptives, marketing of contraceptives, and management of pregnancies. The Distinguished Scientist speaks at conferences and forums around the world and advises scientists about contraceptive technologies. She is the chairperson of the International Committee for Contraception Research, the general secretary of the International Menopause Society, and a member of the Expert Group on Hormonal Contraception of the European Society for Contraception. She is also the program director and principal investigator of a National Institutes of Health (NIH) Center grant from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.
