| Form 990, Part I, Line 1 | Rationale for creating AKADEMIYA2063 AKADEMIYA2063 was established to house three major Africawide programs supporting the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Programme (CAADP) implementation and promoting effective evidence-based development policy-the Regional Strategic Analysis and Knowledge Support System (ReSAKSS), the African Growth and Development Policy (AGRODEP) Modeling Consortium, and the Malabo Montpellier (MaMo) Panel-as well as other programs, projects, and partnerships. AKADEMIYA2063's core programs and other activities aim in different ways to strengthen knowledge systems, promote evidence-based policymaking, and contribute to agricultural and economic development and ultimately to the achievement of the aspirations of the African Union's Agenda 2063-The Africa We Want. Role of AKADEMIYA2063 Inspired by the ambitions of the African Union's Agenda 2063 and grounded in the recognition of the central importance of strong knowledge and evidence-based systems, the vision of AKADEMIYA2063 is an Africa with the expertise we need for the Africa we want. That is an Africa where the available expertise is strong enough and mobilized effectively to meet the continent's development ambitions. This expertise must be responsive to the continent's needs for data and analysis to ensure high-quality policy design and execution. Inclusive, evidence-informed policymaking is key to meeting the continent's development aspirations, creating wealth, and changing livelihoods for the better. |
| Form 990, Part III, Line 1 | AKADEMIYA2063's overall mission is to create, across Africa, state-of-the-art technical capacities to support African Union Member States to achieve the key goals of Agenda 2063 of transforming national economies to boost growth and prosperity. The main goal of AKADEMIYA2063 is to help meet the needs of African countries in terms of data, analytics and mutual learning for the effective implementation of Agenda 2063 and the realization of its outcomes by a critical mass of Member States. Core Values The work of AKADEMIYA2063 is anchored on four core values as noted below. Quality: Quality research for evidence-based decision-making Accountability: Accountability to Africa's development goals and tracking mechanisms Leadership: Leadership in policy research and capacity-strengthening to support AU Member States in CAADP implementation Pan-Africanism: Mobilizing the expertise we need for the Africa we want |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 1 | The EO has five major Board Committees, these are: (1) The Executive Committee (2) The Program and Development Committee (3) The Nominating Committee (4) The Audit Committee, and (5) The Development Committee. The business of the governing body (Board of Trustees) may be designated to an Executive Committee that shall have the power to act for the Board in the period between Board meetings as well as on matters that the Board specifically delegates to it. All interim actions of the Executive Committee shall be reported to the full Board at its next meeting. The Executive Committee shall be comprised of three trustees: the Executive Chairperson, the Vice Chairperson and the Chairperson of the Audit Committee. All the Executive Committee members are members of the governing body. The Executive Committee shall: a) Act, as empowered by the Board, on behalf of the Board as the need arises between full meetings of the Board; b) Handle, with the Board's agreement, sensitive matters that are best kept within a smaller rather than a larger group; c) Assist the Board Chairperson and the Managing Director in preparing the agenda for regular meetings of the Board; d) Identify issues that should be brought to the attention of the Board Committees; e) Conduct an annual review of the performance of the Managing Director and later reporting the review and terms to the full Board; and f) Set the terms of the Managing Director's compensation. The Executive Committee exercised this authority during the reporting period. |

Instead, the rights and privileges of General Members shall be governed by the board-approved General Members Policies. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7b | The non-profit corporation's membership in addition to other rights, powers and privileges exercised jointly with the governing body, has the below powers over and above those of the governing body (1) Power to accept or reject any vote, decision, or recommendation by the Board of Directors, including but not limited to the Annual Budget of the Corporation (2) To remove any officer or member of the Board of Directors at any time, regardless of the term for which such member may have been elected. |

AKADEMIYA2063 keeps a written record of the conflict of interest and how it dealt with it in the Minutes of Board meetings. A Register of Conflicts of Interest is maintained for the purpose of identifying and recording conflicts. This will be circulated at each BOT meeting and is completed by all board members. A Register of other Board Membership that the trustees of the Board hold shall be kept and updated at every meeting. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 | The Executive Committee of the Board shall set the terms of the Managing Director's compensation. This remuneration will rely on the EO's Human Resources Policies and Procedures which specifies that the salaries and conditions of service of staff shall be established by reference to those of similar employers as identified by a salary survey. The salaries and conditions of service of staff shall be established by reference to those of similar employers as identified by a salary survey. Comprehensive salary surveys are conducted every three years. The salary survey report will be presented to the Board of Trustees by the MD. Board approval is required for implementation of any compensation and changes thereof. |
