The trustees review the aims, objectives and activities of the charity each year. This report looks at what the charity has achieved and the outcomes of its work in the reporting period. The trustees report the success of each key activity and the benefits the charity has brought to those groups of people that it is set up to help. The review also helps the trustees ensure the charity's aims, objectives and activities remained focused on its stated purposes. The trustee5 have referred to the gu idance contained in the Charity Commi55ion's general gu idance on public benefit when reviewing the charity'5 aim5 and objective5 and in planning its future activitie5. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activitie5 will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set. In 2022, HRI undertook a review of its 2017-2021 strategic plan and developed its 202 2-202 5 Strategic plan. In line with the new strategic plan, HRI'S objectives and activitie5 are designed to contribute to three key outcomes.. Outcome I '. The harm reduction and drug policy reform movements are characterised by solidarity and equity, informed by evidence, and allied with health and social justice movements. Outcome 2.. Harm reduction approaches and seNices are widely accepted, community-led and sustainably funded. Outcome 3-. Drug policy is aligned with international human rights standards and advances equity, racial and social justice. HRI focuses on these outcomes to advance our overarching vision of a world in which drug policies uphold dignity, health and rights. We organise our work across four teams.. conference, public health and social policy, sustainable financing, and human rights and justice. HRI'S resources - staff and financial are divided relatively evenly across teams. Our conference team convenes more than l 000 delegates from approximately 80 countries around the world via the biennial Harm Reduction International Conference. The conference is held in a different city every two years and has been held in almost every region of the world since the first conference in Liverpool in 1990. In 2020 and 2021 , the conference team also organised Constellations.. An Online Festival on Drugs and Harm Reduction. Our public health and social policy team conducts original research and analysis to track developments in harm reduction and ensu re that people who use drugs have access to the health and social services they need. We also engage on technical matters with community and civil Society partners, government5 and UN agencie5.
Harm Reduction International Trustees. annual report For the year ended 31 December 2022 Our sustainable financing team works to increase funding for harm reduction services around the world by monitoring the funding landscapes for harm reduction, collecti ng and communicating evidence, providing strategic analysis and developing tools for advocates. We engage in strategic processes and dialogues with the major international fu nders of harm reduction, emphasising the catalytic effect of funding community-led work and advocacy. Our human rights and justice team monitors rights abuses committed globally in the name of drug control, and advocates to promote the hu man rights of people who use drugs and their communities. We advance this work through advocacy with UN agencies. governments and human rights mechanisms, in partnership with community and civil society partners. Partnership work is critical to Harm Reduction International., from time to time, this involves making sub-grants to national partners with shared objectives. HRI is guided by a sub-granting policy for such processe5, which support5 implementation of our commitment to fairnes5, integrity. transparency and value for money in sub granting. HRI'S preferred approach is to run an open tender process. HRI'S 2022 5ub-grants are captured under 'project expenses, under Note 5 of the accounts and comprise approximately 50% of this figure. Achievements and performance The charity's main activities, and the people it seeks to support are described below. All its charitable activities focus on reducing the negative health, social and legal impacts of drug use and drug policy,. and are underraken to further Harm Reduction International's charitable pu rposes for the public benefit. In 2022. HRI implemented a second Constellations Online Festival of Drugs and Harm Reduction., leveraging a Webex platform to create an accessible. online forum for ground-breaking discussions on drugs and harm reduction. Highlights included a conversation between Kurt Schmoke, President of the Universlty of Baltimore and former Mayor of Baltimore {1987-99) and David Simon, creator and producer of HBO serie5 'The Wire. on their experiences of the war on drugs. policing. drug policy and politlcs. We also scaled up preparation for the Harm Reduction International conference in April 2023. In 2020 in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, HRI made the decision to postpone the 202 1 Harm Reduction International conference until April 202 3. HRI continued its leadership in the global mapping, celebrating an increase in life-saving services around the world via the Global State of Harm Reduction 2022. The Global State an independent global data collection effort in partnership with commu niry and civil society - is the most comprehensive global mapping of harm reduction responses to drug use, HIV and viral hepatitis. Partners led regional webinars to disseminate new findings. HRI also worked to docu ment the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on harm reducrion services, to expose inequitable vaccine roll out, and to create toolslguides to strengthening access 10 vaccines.
Harm Reduction International Trustees. annual report For the year ended 31 December 2022 Our 202 2 we focused our advocacy for funding for harm reduction around the replenishment of the Global Fund to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (the Global Fund) the largest funder of harm reduction in low- and middle-income countries. This included engaging in strategy discussions, hosting webinars to disseminate critical information to partners working at national level, and bringing critical technical information to the attention of decision makers. We also explored options for future funding for harm reduction from domestic government sources in partnership with organisations in Indonesia, Kenya, Nepal, Nigeria, Uganda, and Sourh Africa. 2022 highlights in our human rights advocacy include shining a light on the increase in drug- related executions in Saudi Arabia and Singapore and demanding more from the international community. We continued efforts to strategically connect national and international human rights advocacy, and to ensure normative progress at UN level p051tively impacts on every day work in criminal systems, in courts and in prisons for example through guides for the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention and reports from the UN Human Rights Council. Across all activities we ai med to.. centre the expertise and leadership of the community of people who use drugs, reflecting on power dynamics within our partnerships, and structurally Irelbalance power., highlight the negative im pact of criminalisation and the compou nding effects of intersectional vulnerabilities., specifically, how drug policy interacts with gender. ethnicity, race, poverty and socioeconomic status. We presented evidence and human rights standards to governments at the UN Human Rights Council, the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs, rhe World Health Assembly.. and contributed to drug pol icy reform dialogues via the National Harm Reduction Conference IUSAI, the Geneva Health Forum, the Scottish Drugs Forum Overdose Awareness Day. meetings of the UNITE Parliamentarians for Global Health, the World Health Summit and a number of civil society meetings. These strategic points of engagement supported progress against our three outcome areas.. a movement characterised by solidarity and equity,. wide acceptance of harm reduction approaches and services., drug policy advance5 equity, racial and Social justice. It remains a complex and challenging environment for harm reduction and drug policy globally. In 2022, a deteriorating global space in terms of the death penalty. the ongoing prioritisation of pu nitive and criminal-focused approaches to drug use, and a sign ificant shortage of funding for critical health interventions overshadowed the establishment of a number of new harm reduction services and progressive positions at UN level. In this context, HRI'S global monitoring, analysis and advocacy remain essential contributions to efforts to achieve a world in which drug policies promote dignity. health and rights. Beneficiaries of our services The ultimate beneficiaries of Harm Reduction International's work are vulnerable people who use drugs and impacted by drug policies around the world,. in our 2022-2025 strategy we highlight the negative impact of the criminalisation of drugs and the compounding effects of intersectional
Harm Reduction International Trustees. annual report For the year ended 31 December 2022 vulnerabilities,. specifically, how drug policy interacts with gender, ethnicity, race, poverty and socioeconomic status. As a convening, policy and advocacy organisation, Harm Reduction International measures how its convening, research and analysis catalyse change, and how our work is used by advocates and policy makers to support reform of laws, policies and programming (at national, regional or i nternational level). Our global monitoring work provides insights into shifting trends, the uptake of evidence-based services or international human rights standards in drug policy and practice. Financial review HRI'S financial position at the end of the reporting period was stronger than in the past two years. Thi5 15 the result of two substantial fundraising efforts coming to fru ition, together with multiple new small funding streams., making the year unique. In addition, HRI'S financial posltion was Strengthened by an unanticipated gain associated with currency fluctuations. Thi5 is broadly in line with HRI'S gradual recovery from the stalling effects of COVID-19 in 2020 and 2021 , and ongoing efforts to strengthen internal controls. Based on our 2023-24 forecast, cash flow, existi ng commitments from donors, active pursuit of new funds, and plans for the Harm Reduction International conference in April 2023, we have basis to believe the organisation can continue to operate and meet its debts as they fall due in the coming 12-24 months,. i.e. continue as a going concern. HRI'S incomelincoming pipeline and forecast expenditure support HRI'S plans for work against its strategic objectives. In 2020, HRI made the decision to postpone the 2021 Harm Reduction International conference until Apri12023. We mitigated the financial impact of conference postponement by delaying most conference-related costs. undertaking some fundraising for convening online (Constellations), and embedding some aspects of convening into our broader grant applications. In line with its fundraising goals, HRI staff continued work to diversify and increase funding in 2022. HRI made Strong progress against its target of holding three months. operational costs in reserves for the year. Fundraising activitie5 were undertaken by HRI staff. there was no specific or material expenditure on fundraising. HRI is committed to achieving value for money across all activities. Principal risks and uncertainties HRI maintains a risk register, reviewed by the trustees twice a year. The risk register prompts the trustees to assess risks and decide upon mitigating actions across five categories.. governance. operational, financial, environmental lexternal and compliance (law and regulation). We continue to analyse the im pact of pandemic-related risks (first incorporated in the risk register in April 2020 in the context of COVID-19).
Harm Reduction International Trustees. annual report For the year ended 31 December 2022 Broadly, we are currently working to mitigate the following key risks.. 4Governance risks.. in the context of HRI's focus on a highly specialised, yet stigmatised topic we face a risk of not being able to attract high quality trustee candidates from outside our sector. Trustees with diverse skills and experience are critical to the effective governance of the charity. We mitigate this risk by drawing on a board skills and diversity framework for board appointments, advertising on broader charity websites for our trustees, and regularly contributing ideas for a porential board candidate pool. Operational risks.. in the context of HRI'S small size and specialised focus, our staff are our greatest assets. The cost of living crisis and inflation in the UK, emergence from pandemic restrictions. along with a tumu Ituous global environment make for uncertain conditions. HRI is working to find new ways to work and support staff resilience. 4 Financial risks.. in the context of a limited pool of donors funding international harm reduction and drug policy, HRI must stay alert to shifts in donor prioritie5 and work to make the case for health-based, right5-based approaches to drugs. Concu rrently, HRI will continue to work on strengthening financial controls and improving our Pi nancial management 5y5tems for best practice. 4 Environmentlexternal risks.. HRI works to mitigate the risk5 of the rapidly changing external environment by strengthening our external communications, and developing work which allows us to demonstrate harm reduction is a social justice and public health issue closely connected to many other complex issues in society. 4Compliance risks.. in the context of HRI'S small sizellimited human resources, we rely on a network of external experts (including our auditors) to assist us to remain compliant with relevant policy and legislation. Reserves policy and going concern At the end of 2022, HRI held a total of £458,409. Of these funds, £176,700 are restricted funds and not available for the general purposes of the charity at the end of the reporting period. Of the unrestricted funds, the trustees have designated three sums.. Firstly, fund5 of £68,353 are held for the purpose of fulfilling HRI'5 commitment to support two human rights networks the South Asia Middle East Network and the Lawyering on the Margins Network. Secondly, funds of £ 54.000 are held for the purposes of gaining technical advice on HRI'S corporate structure and interrogating questions on the 5UStainability of the organi sation- this is in line with the strategic discussions of trustees over a couple of years. Thirdly, funds of £5 7,000 are held to reflect the foreign exchange volatility of 2021 and 2022 combined, with a view to offering protection against future foreign exchange fluctuations. It is anticipated that the activities associated with the first two designated amounts will be completed in 2023, and that the designated amounts will be spent by 31 December 2023. The foreign exchange volatility designated fund will be reviewed by the trustees in November 202 3.
Harm Reduction International Trustees. annual report For the year ended 31 December 2022 HRI does not have material funds in tangible fixed assets or investments. At the end of 202 2, taking into account restricted funds and the designated amounts noted above, HRI holds the amount of £102,356 in reserves. This represents progress towards HRI'S aim to hold three months, operaring costs in reserve la goal which is reviewed annually by the trustees). HRI calculates one month of operating costs {including salary for the team, essential operating costs, and basic liabilities) is £65,000. A restrictive definition of one month of operating costs is £5 5,000. Using the former definition, three months of operating costs is £195,000. HRI attributes its progress towards reserve targets to be related to two matters.. lal two substantial fundraising efforts coming to fruition. together with multiple new small funding streams,. and Ibl ongoing efforts to strengthen internal control5. HRI will continue its efforts to bring its reserves in line with the target set by the trustees through concentrated fundraising efforts and through prudent financial management. Fundraising HRI key management personnel lead on fundraising for the charity. HRI does not engage professional fundraisers or commercial entities in fundraising. Plans for the future HRI adopted its 202 2-202 5 Strategic Plan and re-energised its vision for a world in which drug policies promote dignity, health and rights. The 202 5 Strategy Plan takes into account the rapidly evolving global environment and HRI'5 leadership role at the intersection of harm reduction, drug policy and human rights. HRI has a strong track record of contributing to the evidence-base for harm reduction, monitoring the funding landscape for harm reduction, and advocating for rights-based responses to drugs. HRI will continue its leadi ng work across these areas. HRI is also unique in convening the biennial Harm Reduction International conference, which is the main global forum for the exchange of information and best practice at the intersection of human rights, drug policy and harm reduction. Under the 202 5 Strategy, HRI lead in the sector via four approaches.. 11 I convening the harm reduction and drug policy reform movements for knowledge exchange and strategic advocacy, 121 leading data collection for global monitoring and trend analysis on harm reduction, human rights and drug policy, 131 drawing on systems knowledge and advocacy skills to engage with and influence multilateral bodies, state and non-state actors, 141 developing tools for advocates and responding to requests for technical assistance.

Independent uditor’s report
To the members of
Harm Reduction International
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Harm Reduction International (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet, statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
Give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 31 December 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure for the year then ended
-
Have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice
-
Have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on Harm Reduction International’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
The information given in the trustees’ annual report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
The trustees’ annual report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ annual report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
Adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or

The financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
Certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
We have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
The directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the trustees’ annual report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the statement of trustees’ responsibilities set out in the trustees’ annual report, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of
13
Independent uditor’s report
To the members of
Harm Reduction International
company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are set out below.
Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:
-
We enquired of management, which included obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concerning the charity’s policies and procedures relating to:
-
Identifying, evaluating, and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance;
-
Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected, or alleged fraud;
-
The internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations.
-
We inspected the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
-
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a material effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the charity from our professional and sector experience.
14
Independent uditor’s report
To the members of
Harm Reduction International
-
We communicated applicable laws and regulations throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.
-
We reviewed any reports made to regulators.
-
We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and tested these to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
-
We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud.
-
In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments, assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias and tested significant transactions that are unusual or those outside the normal course of business.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable company's members as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
