EUROPEAN ASSOCIATION OF SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGISTS
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
The Executive Committee present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2021.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and comply with the charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Objectives and activities
The Charity's Objects are: to promote education and research in social anthropology by improving understanding of world societies and encouraging professional communication and cooperation between anthropologists, especially in Europe.
The Executive Committee have paid due regard to the guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake.
Membership
The Association has four categories of membership:
-
Founder members:- Those who attended the inaugural general assembly of the unincorporated association on 14 January 1989.
-
Ordinary members:- Social anthropologists who have been admitted to membership by decision of the Trustees. Eligibility for Ordinary Membership is based on one of the following criteria: possession of a Masters degree (or equivalent) in social anthropology (or equivalent) from a European University, or possession of a teaching or research post in social anthropology.
-
Honorary members:- Distinguished scholars selected by trustees.
-
Student members:- Students on a Masters programme in social anthropology, in PhD programme in social anthropology, or a Masters and/or PhD programme in social sciences with focus on social anthropology.
The Executive Committee has assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
Achievements and performance
European Association of Social Anthropologists (EASA) publishes regular news updates on its website and via social media, and through three newsletters sent to members each year. Newsletters may be accessed online at https://www.easaonline.org/newsletter/.
A principal activity of EASA is to organise a major international conference every two years. During 2021, preparations began to host a fully hybrid conference in Belfast July 26-29, 2022. Four online members’ webinars on different aspects of Open Access, Open Science and Open Data were held in Autumn 2021.
EASA publishes Social Anthropology/Anthropologie Sociale four times a year with occasional special issues. The journal consists of original research articles and book reviews: http://www.easaonline.org/journal.shtml. In 2020, EASA members voted to terminate the contract with Wiley and take the journal Open Access with a new publisher. The contract with Wiley ended 31.12.2021.
EASA also publishes a book series. Both the journal and the book series are now produced on our behalf by Berghahn Books, a small independent publisher. The book series includes edited collections and monographs: http://www.easaonline.org/bookseri.shtml.

EUROPEAN ASSOCIATION OF SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGISTS
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
EASA encourages and supports activities of more than forty networks devoted to specific aspects of anthropological research, practice and theory. Information about EASA networks may be found at www.easaonline.org/networks/.
EASA is a member of the World Council of Anthropological Associations (WCAA) and a sister association of the International Society for Ethnology and Folklore (SIEF). It is also an active member of EASSH (European Association of the Social Sciences and Humanities), ISE (Initiative for Science in Europe) and SAR (Scholars at Risk). Members of the EASA Executive are involved in lobbying funding bodies and raising anthropology’s profile within scholarly research funding programmes, such as those sponsored by the European Union.
Financial review
EASA's income is generated primarily through membership subscriptions, which are collected annually, through conference fees, and to a lesser extent by grants and income from publications. The administration of EASA is undertaken by a professional anthropological administrator: NomadIT. EASA itself employs no staff, and owns or rents no building. The trustees receive reimbursement only for travel and subsistence expenses to attend meetings. In 2021, EASA Trustees held all their executive meetings online using Zoom. Everyday business is also conducted online using Slack. Exceptionally, because of the pandemic, no face-to-face AGM was held in 2021.
EASA was founded in 1989, and is young compared to its two largest counterparts, the American Anthropological Association, and the Royal Anthropological Institute. EASA has no buildings, and no assets other than the cash savings in its bank accounts, which double as a reserve. At a minimum, these would cover the cost of one major conference, should it fail, and the cost of alternative administrative support should NomadIT no longer be available to administer the association.
Funds surplus to the everyday running of the charity are invested in savings accounts and fixed term deposits. Banks that hold EASA's funds have been selected on the basis of their ethical credentials. In 2021, the banks in which EASA held its cash were: The Co-operative Bank, Metro Bank, Triodos Bank and Charity Bank. No equities or investments are held other than the cash deposits.
EASA seeks to manages its finances prudently, and aims to make a small annual surplus. It reinvests the remainder in supporting its members through subsidising conference attendance and grants to EASA networks.
Income from subscriptions and charitable activities of £113,786 has been recognised in the accounts. Expenditure of £98,071 relating to membership administration and charitable activities leaves a surplus of £15,715 to add to the reserves. Reserves available to carry forward at the 31 December 2021 amount to £468,310.
Plans for future periods
EASA continues to develop its website and social media presence, as well as lobbying on behalf of the discipline, supporting those on precarious contracts and early career researchers. It is committed to minimising its carbon footprint, improving its biennial conference, sustaining the quality and accessibility of its publications, and supporting its member-led networks.

Funds held as custodian trustee
EASA is custodian trustee to Peace and Conflict Studies in Anthropology (PACSA). PACSA is a network of scholars and researchers studying peace and conflict from a range an anthropological perspectives.
EASA is custodian trustee to the fund used by the Network for Applied Anthropology (APPLY), which seeks to open up the anthropological discipline.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF EUROPEAN ASSOCIATION OF SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGISTS
I report to the Members of the Executive Committee on my examination of the financial statements of European Association of Social Anthropologists (the Charity) for the year ended 31 December 2021.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the Members of the Executive Committee of the Charity (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the 2006 Act).

1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
4 the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
European Association of Social Anthropologists is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is RAI, 50 Fitzroy Street, London, W1T 5BT.
1.1 Accounting convention
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)” (effective 1 January 2019). The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The Charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Members of the Executive Committee have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Members of the Executive Committee continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
- 1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Members of the Executive Committee in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
1.4 Incoming resources
Income is recognised when the Charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
-
Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable.
-
Investment income is included when receivable.
-
Incoming resources from grants, membership subscriptions, conferences and workshops are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance. This could result in income from the bi-ennial conference being deferred until the conference takes place.
-
1.5 Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis inclusive of any VAT. The specific policies are:
-
Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with membership administration.

1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
-
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
-
Grant expenditure is recognised once an unconditional commitment to pay the grant has been communicated or the grant has been paid, whichever is the earlier. The charity has not made any grant commitments of more than one year.
-
Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include accountancy fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the company.
-
All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SOFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource.
-
Support costs are those costs that assist the work of the charity towards achieving its charitable activities.
-
1.6 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks.
1.7 Financial instruments
The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when the Charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
