Educational Research and Developtnent Programme IERDP In the lirsl quarter of 2020, the Foundation commissioned the evaluation of ERDP by 8n external education oonsullant, Di Rabab Tsmish. We also contracled consuliant Fadya Salfiti to plan the futurè dis8ngag8ment of the Ni'lin Centre from the Foundation and to develop a sustainability plan to ensure that it will continue ils work in Ni'lin and nearby areas. As the coronavirus hit Palestine, thè first facilities to be closed were the schools, and chaos ensued as result. No one in the education sector was ready, and that iemains largely unchanged to date. In addition lo incapacity. inlernel connectivity and access to cornputers was a major issue, particularly in the public sector, In rural aroas and throughtsul the Gaza btrip. ERDP sought to provide support to teachèis, both emotionally aiid ped¢igogiL£illy.

Unabl$ lo hold in-person activities with tBa¢hers arhcs the public such as festivals 2nd scientific activities, we redesigned our plans in line with the new health and safety measures imposed by the pandemi¢ As an example, all meetings and workshops with teacher5 were held onlin8 during full lockdowns. During partial Ic)ckdowns, courses took place online and in person and included teachers from the Ramallah distriGI able to be present at the Foundation. Teachèrs from distant districts and the Ar8b world were inviled lo join online.

As a iesull of 14 years of siege, access to clean water, electricity and the internet is already Iimitad ancl inlermillenl with m2ny homes facing overcrowding. As a result, il was not easy to Iiznsition to rinline working and our many different commur)ilies of beneficiaries did not hav& the same levels ol internet access. Nonetheless anol despite all tsf the abov&, we were still able lo serve a large portic>n the community by intensifying OLJtrea¢h during lirnes outside of lockdown and by planning online work lo meet the electricity schedule and the availability of participants. The vast majority of online work was done in the form c>f Facebook closed groups in order to maintain privacy and provide adequate support wh8n needed.

The Mosaic Rooms Like 211 Cultural organisations around the globe, The Mosaic Roorlls experienced 8n unpreoedenled and challenging yezr due to the advent of COVID-19 and its impact. Nationwide lo¢kdown5, UK Government u-turns and the ever-changing epidemiological natur¢ of COVID-19 has made il extraordinarily difficult to plan even in the short-term. Exhibitions. events anLI activities were continuously having lo be rescheduled, Bhange formal or lo be cancelled. The lockdowng result8d In th& gallery being open to visitors foi just 22 wcoks Idue lo social distancing regulalionsl, which has meant our audiBnce figur8s for 2020 have been Gompaiatively very low. Despite these challenges, The Mosaic Rooms did produce and present two important exhibitions by artists Mohammad Omar Khalil and Heba Y. Amin. Heba Y. Awin's solo exhibition in particular a¢hieved exl¢fjsive international press coveragé and in terms of her own practice ha5 been her most ambitious and intellectually rigorous oxhibilion to dale. We also have in place an exciting and ambitious exhibition programme for 2021. Whilst The Mo821e Rooms was often physically closed. lor the first lime we experim8nted and deliveied a critically acclaimed online programmo which had a total 0129,700 participants from the UK and around the worlts. 11 h35 b8en a huge learning curve lor the team and we are very proud Df what wè have 18arnt 8nd delivered in such a Shori space of timp. We also managed to conceive and deliver soms lèaining activities remotely, including a bespokè online programme with local schools, which has been recognised as outstanding example of best practice within the ¢reatlve laarning sector. Fundraising and income has Dbviously taken a huge hil during this lumulluous year. However, we re81igned our programming activities because of the lockdowns, made savings across various individual budgets and tDok advantage of the UK Government's furlough scheme and as a result achi8V8d an underspend in this year's budget. STRATEGIC OBJECTIVE 1- The Go To Place To achieve this Thè Mosaic Rooms conceived and produced • year-round programme ol temporaiy exhibitlOnS and public events.

REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020 DIGITAL GROWTH SLIMMARY The digital audience interaction has ch&nged dramatically since the pandemi¢ began. Audiences are now accessing The Mosaic Rooms across various platforms for live inleraclions, something that wasn't previously c)ffered by the gallery. Animating the digital channels on Inslagram and Fatebook with live ev&nts increased followers lo Instagram particularly. The increase in numbers allending films and recorded events was also significant. Thi5 strand ol work has developed significantly and will need to b8 maintained and buill on in 2021, to continue to encourage the demands of existing and new audiences off-site through recoided live events, and exhibition inlerviews and tours. VISITOR SURVEY The 201912020 survey was compl6tèd In spring this year. A total of 385 peoplè parti¢ip8ted over a 12-month period. The respondents were a mix of exhibition and events visitors lo ensure feedback was ￿presentative. The svrvey completed was the Audience Agency's Audience Finder survey which énables data comparison with other museums and galleries in England. SUMMARY FINDINGS The burvey's findings show that The Mosaic Rooms continues to attract a young audience. 11 also continues to attract a high proportion ol visitors identifyinq as Arab, reflecting Ilie gallery's role as an important meeting point for these groups to oncounler contgmporary culture connected with their idenlily. The proportion of black visitors rose which could reflect the prograrnming around the Mohammed Omar Khalil's exhibiliori. This should be born in mind wh6n programming in 2021 to encourage the offer lo a diverse range of London audi6nCèS. Co116Ction D* lurth8r audience data was a challenge because ol the pandemic. The visitor survey is about physical visits, and to collect data we have to Gollecl 380 contributions which would not have been possible within the lockdown closures this year. Unfortunately, a survèy developed on the existing lormal and capable of integrating exisling data was not SLlltable for use for online event visitors. Although data from online engagement shows a spread of UK and international visitors, a ThOT8 comprehensive suNey to build on ¢xisting data is needed. We are speaking with The Audience Agency about this and recognise this is a point for urgent dev61Dpment in 2021. The increasè in proportion cif inlernalional visitors to our site, and anecdotally lo our events, indicat8s an audienc who we have not been Interacting with previously. The online events programme and increase of our digilal offer provides opportunity lo build our relationship with these audiences and data collection in 2021 which will help us learn more. STRATEGIC OBJECTIVE TWO - Advocate for the role of arts & ¢ulture in society We have pul on pause developing a network ol organisztions adopting a similar approach to Thè Mosaic Rooms. The pandemic and its Impact has meant this is not the right lime, particulzrly 85 many argani88lions are in survival mode. However, this year The Mobaic Roorns has joined both CVAN Iconlemporary Visual Arts Nelwoikl and VALS (Visual Art5 London Strategy Group) and allended monthly meetings with directors from leading public g211&Fl&S to share knowledge and feed into government policy and sectorial advocacy including approaches lo funding souices. As a result, the key activity lor this objective was our learning piogramme. A Creative Learning Curator was appointed in early 2020 and with this new role we were able to respond tts the pandernic by delivering digital projects for schools, yDung petsple and families.

Reserves pollcy The Trustees hèvo reviewed the Foundation5 need5 lor reserves in line with the guidance issu6d by the Charity Commission. The Trustees believe that a prudent level of reserves would be in the region of £1,700,000. This would enabl& thé Found8tion to have the financial resources to meet employees, salaries and basic running Gosts for 6 months. Page 20 A.M. QATTAN FOUNDATION IA company limited by guarantee) TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020 Thé Al-Qattan Charitable Trust in Jersey has been thè Foundations largest donor to date, over a period of morè than twenty years.

However, they also regaid Ime emergellGy provisions outlined abovB as ne￿$S￿ry to cover any suspension of the M-Qattan Gharitable Trust's funding lor reasons beyond their control. At the year end the free reserves ol the Charity las defined by unrestricted funds not held as fixed asseis and investment51 was £2,083,645 which is £383,645 in oxcess of this policy. The TrustBes have i&viewed the luture plans ol tlie Charity and are satisfied that the 19vel of free reserves will decrease in ling Wlth the policy over the curning year. However, at the end 012021 they will review the level and policy for free reserves as part of the budgét getting plan and in line with the strategic plan. Investment Policy Duiing 2020, the Board's Investment Committ&e recommended Ihe appointment ol an inv8Stment advisor lo help it place ils excess cash reserves in a conservativ&ly managed portfolio which would generale better returns than the currently very low rates offer8d on the money markets. Thus, 2 selection procèss was undertaken to appoint th8 advisor and three Gandidates were con8idèred on the basis of Iheii experience with Gharitigs, Lrusted third party recommendations, size and cost with Ihe Jersey-based lirm Enhancé winning the bid.

The onset of the pandemic varied 8mong the various geog18phi8s and CDmmunili¢s the FDundalion servès. Please see the programme reports above for its direct impact on our work. More specifically for the Palestine context, thé first cases were reporied in March 2020, public events were cancelled, schools were closed ill the first week of March, and the country wfjnt into total lockdown on the 22nd March until end of May. Whilè strict measures were adopted in the Vvesl Bank during Jun8 and July, life went back lo normal in Gaza until Ihe end of August. By August, the authorities in the Wlost Bank eased restTlCtions and allowed public galherings, only to re-impose a IoGkdown late in Novembei. Meanwhile in Gaza, the second lockdown started at Ihg end Df August and continLJed, without effective Implementation, until the end of th8 year. As a rèsult, the Foundation, in addition lo caring for its staff and rgsource5 and to fulfilling its obligations ID Its beiieficiaries, also had to adapt to different regulations depending on the location of its operations.
