SUMMARY:THE ANNUAL NPO CONFERENCE  (with PBORA)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE ANNUAL NPO CONFERENCE (with PBORA)\nTheme: Strengthening Accountability\, Transparency and Sustainability in the Non-Profit Sector\nDate: 15th – 19th June 2026\nVenue: Pride Inn Paradise Beach Hotel\, Mombasa\nTime: 09.30am-03.30pm \nOVERVIEW: \nThe non-profit sector in Kenya remains central to social delivery and development finance\, but it is operating in a period of rapidly rising stakeholder expectations and regulatory tightening. Regulators and donors now demand stronger evidence of stewardship\, clearer links between funding and outcomes\, and financial reports that are comparable\, decision-useful and auditable. At the same time\, many NPOs face persistent operational weaknesses: fragmented accounting practices\, weak internal controls\, inconsistent recognition of grants and restricted funds\, poor donor reporting harmonization\, and low readiness for external assurance. These gaps undermine donor confidence\, hamper interoperability with government financing and create reputational risk for the sector. \nThe introduction of the International Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS) marks a pivotal moment for NPO financial reporting. INPAS is designed specifically to address NPO reporting needs including improving transparency\, comparability and credibility of NPO financial statements\, and providing sector-tailored guidance where existing for-profit standards are inadequate. INPAS is a standalone\, topic-based standard that builds on the IFRS for SMEs\, full IFRS and IPSAS where appropriate\, while adding NPO-specific solutions (for example on fund accounting\, revenue from grants/donations\, narrative reporting and transition requirements). Its objectives include improving decision-usefulness and accountability of NPO reports. \nPractical implementation of INPAS raises immediate technical and governance issues that must be handled at institutional and sectoral levels. Transition disclosures\, reconciliations to prior frameworks and narrative reporting are required by INPAS and will impose new preparation\, control and disclosure workstreams for many NPOs. INPAS also recognizes cost/benefit trade-offs and permits limited undue-cost exemptions where justified\, but any adoption still requires robust planning\, updated accounting policies\, staff retraining and stronger audit readiness. \nFor these reasons the Annual NPO Conference (with PBORA) will position INPAS not as a remote technical standard but as a practical\, implementable roadmap for accountability: one that requires coordinated action from boards\, finance teams\, auditors\, regulators and donors. The conference will therefore combine high-level policy dialogue with hands-on technical clinics\, worked examples and implementation toolkits so participants leave with clear next steps from revising accounting policies and preparing transition reconciliations to strengthening internal controls and improving donor reporting harmonization. This integrated approach will accelerate adoption\, reduce dual-reporting burdens and strengthen public confidence in the sector. \nTopics to be covered will include: \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE\nTOPICS\n\n\nDAY 1\nINPAS: Purpose\, Scope and Strategic Implications for Kenyan NPOs\n·         Why INPAS was developed and its principal objectives (transparency\, comparability\, credibility). \n·         INPAS’ scope\, relationship to IFRS for SMEs / IFRS / IPSAS and when NPOs should use it. \n·         High-level differences NPOs must anticipate (fund accounting\, narrative reporting\, grant treatment). \n·         Strategic implications for boards\, funders and auditors;
