Accountability

At KTDA Foundation, accountability is central to our promise of “Farmer First. No Farmer Left Behind.”

We are committed to the highest standards of governance, transparency, and responsible stewardship as we work to empower smallholder tea farmers and their communities.

Our Values

Our work is guided by:

  • Inclusion
  • Ethical practice
  • The power of partnership
  • Trust, accountability, and transparency
  • Professional standards
  • Sustainable change
  • Respect for the environment

Governance and Oversight

The Foundation operates under a Board of Trustees that provides strategic leadership and fiduciary oversight. As part of our 2025–2030 Strategic Plan, we are strengthening our governance structures to enhance independence, visibility, and resource mobilization — including oversight of our Social Enterprise arm to ensure commercial activities remain mission-driven and impact-focused.

Financial Integrity

We ensure that:

  • All resources are used solely to empower tea farming communities.
  • Annual internal and external audits are conducted.
  • Financial statements present a true and fair view.
  • 100% of social enterprise surpluses are reinvested into community programs.

Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning

We are institutionalizing a robust Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability and Learning (MEAL) framework to ensure that our programs are measurable, responsive, and continuously improving.

Through structured feedback mechanisms and digital systems, we strengthen transparency and ensure farmer voices inform our decisions.

Partnerships and Transparency

We collaborate with government, development partners, private sector actors, and community-based organizations through structured agreements that promote shared accountability and measurable impact.

At KTDA Foundation, accountability means more than compliance — it means honoring the trust of over 600,000 smallholder farmers by delivering sustainable, inclusive, and measurable impact.
