This form was updated by all directors and officers in 2021. If such a relationship is reported or known, the directors follow the procedures of the Conflict of Interest Policy which directs full disclosure of all facts and circumstances, consideration by the board of the nature and seriousness of the conflict and makes a decision whether to enter into the transaction and, if so, to ensure the terms of the transaction are appropriate.

| Form 990, Part III, Question 4a (cont.) | Inspired by his mentor, Dr. Paul Farmer, Dr. Kahn has long been committed to overcoming the structural barriers that prevent robust collaboration between individuals and organizations; the very partnerships that are required to change paradigms and realize health equity. Having completed his medical training at Harvard Medical School (HMS), in 2022 Dr. Kahn continued serving on HMS's Board of Fellows and chairing its Global Health and Service Advisory Council. After Dr. Farmer's unexpected death in early 2022, Dr. Kahn worked closely with HMS to safeguard a smooth transition in the leadership of HMSs Department of Global Health and Social Medicine (DGHSM) and to ensure the lasting influence of Dr. Farmer's legacy advancing health equity. In 2022, Dr. Kahn worked with many of Dr. Farmers generous donors to support existing programs to thrive and to catalyze new ambitious collaborative programs.Involving Partners In Health (PIH) and the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine (DGHSM).In 2022, Dr. Kahn served as the host of the Global Health Affinity Group for the Network of Engaged International Donors (NEID), facilitating collaboration between philanthropists. The Abundance Foundation also organized an event featuring Dr. Agnes Binagwaho, the chancellor of PIHs University of Global Health Equity in Rwanda. This event was emblematic of the Abundance Foundations 2022 global health programmatic activities that brought together PIH leadership and HMSs DGHSM leadership to be in community with new and existing donors committed to Dr. Paul Farmers legacy. Abundance Foundations 2022 global health grant making activities for Partners In Health supported an emergency response to the civil unrest in Haiti and an evaluation of the impact of a comprehensive primary care health systems strengthening intervention on HIV and TB services in Kono District, Sierra Leone. This Sierra Leone work was led by Dr. Mohamed Bailor Barrie, who has played roles in the Abundance Project for Global Health, both as a graduate of Harvard Medical Schools Master of Medical Science of Global Health Delivery program, and as a leader of the work responding to the Ebola crisis, the epicenter of which was within 200 miles of the health system Dr. Barrie founded.After a hiatus, the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) restarted in 2022. Dr. Kahn used the opportunity to reconnect and support the ongoing work and partnership of leaders from PIH and Harvard who were involved in Abundance Foundations multifaceted CGI commitments between 2010-2016. While there, Dr. Kahn supported the successful navigation of critical junctures that drew on his clinical and communication skills as well as his long-standing relationships with organizations long supported by the Abundance Foundation.2022 marked the twelfth year of Abundance partnering with the Better Evidence program (at Ariadne Labs) and Wolters Kluwer to provide free access to the digital clinical tool, UpToDate, to clinicians worldwide. In 2022, Better Evidence facilitated over 45,000 free subscriptions to clinicians serving vulnerable populations in 151 countries impacting more than three million clinical decisions. The Better Evidence for Training Program expanded to reach more than 43,000 medical students, residents, and faculty across 70 facilities in 12 countries. Dr. Kahn serves on the board of trustees of the Global Pediatric Alliance (GPA), supporting community-based healthcare, maternal and infant health in Latin America. In 2022, Dr. Kahn's partnership and Abundance Foundation grants continued to support GPA's small grants program, which enabled community-driven projects to reduce malnutrition, strengthen skills of 90 health promoters in Mayan communities in Mexico & Guatemala, and promote Indigenous women-led maternal and child health services. Since 2012, the Abundance Foundation has been a steadfast strategic partner and supporter of Out of Eden Walk (OOEW), supporting Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and National Geographic Society explorer, Paul Salopek's epic 24,000-mile on-foot journey following the path of human migration a quest that is still ongoing to this day. In addition to providing grant funding in 2022, Abundance Foundations President, Dr. Kahn, continued to serve on OOEW's Board of Trustees. OOEW has produced extensive articles, photos, and videos, with its storytelling reaching a broad global audience. In 2022, OOEW's Homestories program, a map-based storytelling resource, has expanded globally. In 2022, OOEW made it halfway across a collaborative walk across China, engaging a global audience through philanthropic, academic and journalistic partnerships and workshops. Abundance was the original supporter and strategic partner for the creation of Out of Eden Learn (OOEL), a unique social media-like learning platform for students aged 319. Since 2013, students inspired by the Out of Eden Walk (OOEW) have been invited on multi-week learning journeys in which students explore their own local communities and join with students of similar ages from diverse geographical and socioeconomic settings to share and compare their experiences. As of 2022, this completely free program has engaged over 60,000 students in over 44 states and 70 countries.OOEL is an initiative of Project Zero, a research institute at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, and in 2022, the OOEL team worked on an e-book that has implications for broadly changing classroom practices, far beyond the specifics of intercultural digital exchange. This book distills a Project Zero-developed pedagogical approach cultivated and supported by the Abundance Foundation since 2013.In 2022, the Abundance Foundation advised and supported OOEL in multifaceted ways including rebranding, connecting OOEL with potential partners, and providing access to strategic legal counsel.In 2022, OOEL continued to invite young people to (1) slow down so that they can carefully observe the world around them and listen attentively to others, (2) share stories and perspectives with one another, and (3) make connections between their own lives and bigger stories, forces, and systems. |
