Introduction

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 April 2021.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006, and the Statement of Recommended Practice ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities’ (SORP) (FRS 102 second edition effective January 2019). This report has been prepared taking advantage of the small companies’ exemption of section 415A of the Companies Act 2006.

Structure, Governance and Management of Global Dialogue

Global Dialogue is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 10 April 2006 and registered as a charity on 19 December 2007. The company is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association.

The directors of the charitable company are its trustees for the purpose of charity law and the members of the company limited by guarantee. Throughout this report they are referred to as the trustees.

The trustees who served during the year ended 30 April 2021 are listed on page 1. No trustees had any beneficial interest in the charity, and no remuneration of directors is paid by the charity.

New trustees are appointed by the existing board and receive an induction process which includes access to founding, financial and planning documents, Charity Commission approved literature, meetings with senior staff, and training in using the online space through which the board use to conduct business between meetings. Three trustees resigned during the year ended 30 April 2021 and, following a skills audit, the trustees recruited five new board members by public advertisement during 2021/22.

Day to day management of the charity’s activities is the responsibility of Esther Hughes, Executive Director. Pay and remuneration of key management personnel is set by the Board with reference to relevant comparative data, and a review of the charity’s Reward and Remuneration Policy is planned for the year 2021-22.

Global Dialogue’s Objectives and Activities

Global Dialogue is an independent, international platform for philanthropic partnership, offering hosting, regranting, incubation and special initiatives capacity, enabling funders to work together to advance human rights and social change.

Our charitable objects are to advance for the public benefit in the United Kingdom or elsewhere such purposes as are recognised as exclusively charitable under the law of England and Wales and in particular (but without prejudice to the generality of those objects):

DocuSign Envelope ID: 86DE06D6-98D3-48A8-A5DD-C6CF75E78407

Global Dialogue carries out a range of activities in furtherance of these charitable objects, which we group into four areas: hosting, incubating, grant making and special initiatives, and for the first time this year this Report presents our income and expenditure under these four areas.

Having considered the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit, the trustees are confident that these activities provide benefit to the public both in the UK and abroad. In the year 2020-21 these included five hosted programmes:

In the year 2020-21 we incubated a new entity, The Five Foundation , the Global Partnership to End FGM. Global Dialogue also continued to carry out general grantmaking , enabling funders to make grants supporting human rights and social change worldwide, and to offer a special initiatives programme to assist funders in scoping, testing, and developing new approaches or partnerships.

Grant-making

Some of the programmes hosted at Global Dialogue involve grant-making using funds of one or more contributing funders, whilst others are more focussed on collaboration and joint working with funder members making their own funding decisions. Each of our grant-making programmes has a separate grant-making policy which is determined by the programme goals.

Grants made by Global Dialogue in relation to Migration Exchange and the Funder’s Initiative for Civil Society are made in pursuit of that programme’s strategic goals, as identified by the Programme Director and by its management committee which is made up of funders of the network. The Director and committee identify the outcomes they wish to achieve and then seek organisations who are equipped to deliver them, so these programmes do not usually consider unsolicited approaches for funding. In all cases final grant recommendations are presented to the trustee board for approval.

Our general grant-making is not open to general applications, as grants are made from donated funds in accordance with the terms and objectives of that donation. The trustees consider whether any terms applied are consistent with our charitable objects before accepting the donation, and the trustees in full session directly approve any onward grant using donated funds.

Unsolicited applications to all programmes are reviewed by Global Dialogue staff who respond accordingly. During the year 2020-21 we undertook a Regranting Review to equip the organisation to significantly increase the volume, efficiency, and scope of our grant management function in line with our strategic framework.

Risk

The trustees confirm that the major risks to which the charity is exposed have been identified and are reviewed by the trustees on a quarterly basis, and that systems and procedures have been established to manage those risks. During 2020-21, a year of extraordinary risks due to the coronavirus pandemic, the trustees reviewed a special risk register on a monthly basis, and oversaw an Information Security Review to ensure that these particular risks were fully understood and properly mitigated, especially in the context of remote working. The organisational risk register was fully revised during the summer of 2021 and is now monitored bi-monthly.

Activities, Achievements and Future Plans

As the dramatic events of 2020 influenced the priorities of international philanthropy, the year 2020-21 was a time of review and renewal for the majority of our hosted programme portfolio, with some programmes showing significant growth and others adopting new approaches.

In the summer of 2020, we welcomed the International Education Funders Group (IEFG) to our hosted programme portfolio. The figures presented for IEFG in this report cover the period August 2020-April 2021; comparative figures for 2019-20 are not available.

We look forward to a period of continued growth and success in 2021-22.

Ariadne

Ariadne is a network of European social change and human rights funders who work together to strengthen philanthropy, help funders act strategically, and encourage new donors to enter the field with maximum impact. The network is made up of 736 individuals from 138 grant-making organisations based in 21 countries.

Ariadne’s principal accomplishments in 2020-21 include:

Through all of this, Ariadne continues to build relationships with national associations of foundations across Europe, in the hope that joint efforts will attract more funders to the human rights field.

The pandemic has exacerbated and accelerated existing social challenges, fuelling a rise in domestic violence, restrictions on free assembly and protest, infringements on digital privacy rights, and more. It has also exposed the deep inequalities within our societies and widened the gap between rich and poor. In the face of these challenges, in 2021-22 and beyond, Ariadne is taking the opportunity to focus funders on some of these key issue areas and galvanize efforts to address the underlying inequalities, including racial and gender discrimination, that are a critical feature not only of the pandemic but also of the climate crisis.

The Five Foundation

The Five Foundation, as the global partnership to end FGM, prioritised establishing a strong ground of partners from international, regional, national and local (frontline) levels during this period. The number of partners increased by 55, including large organisations like Action Aid and Women For Women International, alongside dozens of grassroots anti-FGM groups. In Sudan, The Five Foundation worked with partners to advocate for that country (also with around 90% FGM prevalence) to ban FGM, for the US to strengthen its law in January 2021, for Egypt to also update its law around the same time, and commit to doing more to tackle FGM. As a brand, The Five Foundation was strengthened with dozens of high profile events including at Goldman Sachs and Google, and media coverage in over 80 publications during this time. Organisational strategy was solidified during this period, and a new M&E strategy and tool were finalised. The Five Foundation’s business plan was fine-tuned and a threeyear operational plan was developed.

In the year ahead The Five Foundation will seek to register an independent charitable entity under the law of England and Wales and expects to spin out of Global Dialogue.

Funders Initiative for Civil Society (FICS)

FICS’ mission is to defend and expand civic space by ensuring progressive movements and their allies have the resources they need to tackle the drivers of closing civic space – the systems, trends, and actors that sit behind growing restrictions on rights of assembly, association, and other fundamental freedoms.

For FICS, the year began with publication of ‘Rethinking civic space in the age of intersectional crises: a briefing for funders’, our landmark review of the future of civic space informed by interviews with 150 funders and civil society representatives working on the issues that will be most contested in the coming decade (from climate justice and democracy to racial justice, migrants’ rights, and others). This analysis continues to be influential, and FICS has been invited to speak at a number of high-profile sector events as a result, including to act as co-convenor for Shimmering Solidarity, a four-month global rights summit led by Global Philanthropy Project.

Rethinking civic space identifies three systemic drivers of closing space that must be tackled at scale if we are to secure a future grounded in human rights and social and environmental justice. This year FICS has focused efforts predominantly on one of these drivers – the use

Global Dialogue Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 30 April 2021 Page 6

DocuSign Envelope ID: 86DE06D6-98D3-48A8-A5DD-C6CF75E78407

of counter-terrorism and national security laws and discourse, and related technological tools, to restrict and criminalise assembly, expression, and association. Preparing to launch a new Global Initiative on Civic Space and Security to disrupt and reform this massive trend, FICS commissioned foundational studies into the impact of counter-terror and security frameworks on civic space, including a high-level briefing by the UN Special Rapporteur on Counter Terrorism and Human Rights, a first-ever mapping of transnational bodies which have a security mandate with implications for civic space, and new country-level research in Kenya and South Asia on security as a driver of closing civic space.

Our analysis identified a ‘security playbook’ of strategies, employed in different combinations to different extents by different governments, including abuse of security frameworks to silence dissent; use of new technology to surveil and censor; and the promotion of the security narrative to justify abuses.

Tackling this trend has become ever more urgent as the world has been reshaped by the global Covid-19 pandemic. Governments have drawn on hard security policy and unaccountable techno-solutions in the name of public health – with many adapting sweeping laws that were originally introduced as counter-terrorism measures in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. There is evidence that a large number of governments have used emergency powers to curtail dissent, for example increased surveillance of #EndSARS activists in Nigeria and instructions forbidding health workers to communicate with journalists in Bangladesh. By February 2021, the scale of abuse of power linked to pandemic response was so extreme as to be highlighted by the UN Secretary General. Working in partnership with funders, movements and their allies, the Global Initiative on Civic Space and Security will provide new analysis, convening, and grant funding that will create a step change in donor and civil society awareness and action on the security playbook – leveraging in its first three years USD 7-10m in grant-making and field-building to support those groups and individuals most impacted by the abuse of these laws and tools. In Spring 2020 we were delighted to confirm the Fund for Global Human Rights as a founding partner to the Global Initiative.

In late 2020, FICS was approached by a small group of funders to incubate new infrastructure that will help build the capacity of progressive movements to foster public and policy support for their agendas. This responds directly to FICS’ analysis around cultural threats to democracy – including widespread, coordinated anti-gender and anti-rights narratives – as a key driver of closing civic space. We are excited to be able to facilitate the flow of new resources to this important work, and look forward to sharing more about this initiative in 2021-22.

Finally, these programmatic developments have been underpinned by a parallel focus on organisational strengthening – including investments in strategic planning, programme governance, communications strategy, and recruitment. In the Spring, we were delighted to confirm a multi-year partnership with Ford Foundation to underpin this crucial work. At the close of the financial year, we had begun projects with Global Dialogue’s wider team to meet FICS’ evolving grant-making and information security needs. We had also welcomed FICS’ new Programme Coordinator Kate Campbell, who brings fifteen years’ experience in the UK civil service and community philanthropy, and were midway through recruitment for content lead roles on civic space and security and cultural threats to democracy. We are delighted

subsequently to have been joined by James Logan, a highly experienced researcher and grant-maker who has worked with numerous foundations including the Fund for Global Human Rights, and Hannah Draper, who brings expertise in digital rights and most recently led work on issues of state-led surveillance as part of Open Society Foundation’s Information Program.

Migration Exchange (MEX)

Migration Exchange is an informal network of independent funders working to improve the lives of people who migrate and receiving communities in the UK by informing public debate on migration and supporting welcoming communities.

Migration Exchange’s broad strategic priorities from 2018 to 2021 are to improve understanding of public attitudes on migration and how they relate to politics, policy and communities; use this knowledge, locally and nationally, to improve accuracy and depth of conversations about migration, integration and identity; develop strong networks that forge alliances and build public support for welcoming and thriving communities for all; and promote an immigration system that treats people fairly and with dignity and respect, and which has public confidence and consent.

Key activities in 2020-2021 included continuing to respond to the Covid pandemic and working with trusts and foundations in our network as well as sector organisations, to deliver briefings, programmes on leadership and align funding for emerging needs.

We held a series of webinar briefings on key emerging migration and refugee protection issues to inform foundation and sector strategies and responses including the new plan for immigration (April 2021), migration and precarious work (March 2021), Hong Kong and the BNO route to the UK (December 2020), Detention, removals & access to justice (December 2020), The political, social & economic outlook for refugee and migration issues (September 2020), two sessions on covid19 and strategic communications (July 2020).

Migration Exchange has also provided resources and support and networking spaces for organisations working on migration and to funders, publishing a rapid review of emergency funding during the pandemic in November 2020.

We have played a key role in developing and funding new collaborative responses, including the Respond and Adapt Programme, a new Hope not Hate project on the far right, and a new project on vaccine roll out by Doctors of the World. We have been proactive in initiating this kind of work and connecting funders so that they can fund in an aligned and more effective way – we have aligned around £300,000 in the last year as well as securing over £2.3 million for emergency response funding via RAP. Our relationship with the field has developed this year, including with new organisations and networks. We have successfully connected a number of people and organisations, helping to highlight intersections between race, migration, gender and the pandemic (for example, ensuring that groups working on Windrush and on violence against women and girls were included in policy and service networks). We have done this across a range of approaches to change including strategic communications, litigation, service provision and policy advocacy.

We have made some progress on the outcomes focused on leadership development, though the delivery of the substantive programme had to be delayed. We adapted our design and delivery plans and made a grant of £55,050 to Clore Social Leadership to deliver a tailored online programme of leadership support to emerging and experienced leaders in the sector during summer 2020. The programme integrated a mix of online sessions, coaching, and action learning and was delivered to 150 emerging and experienced leaders from a range of organisations across the UK. We are pleased with the reach beyond London and to people with lived experience. The substantive ‘Leading Beyond Borders’ programme will take place from September 2021.

In 2021-2022, we will focus on developing a new strategy and shifting our staffing and governance with a new strategy to transform the resourcing and power of the UK migration sector and independent funder support by making them more connected, informed, and able to catalyse effective action for the ultimate benefit of people within the UK migration and asylum system.

International Education Funders Group (IEFG)

The IEFG is a peer-led, member-driven group, focused on co-learning, information exchange and networking, trying to collectively strengthen our members’ work and knowledge of the field of education. Our purpose is to help private funders have a stronger voice and impact in education by improving their strategic analyses and thinking, informing and assisting their grantmaking, and providing opportunities for collective learning and action.

Over the reporting period, we curated and sent monthly email updates to ~430 individual contacts from 104 member foundations and a small number of outside stakeholders. The updates included information on events, news, jobs, and other resources at the intersections of education, international aid, and philanthropy as well as member announcements. Prominent themes that were featured in the updates over the last year include the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on access to education and learning outcomes, changes in funding patterns (often related to the pandemic), and power dynamics within aid and philanthropy. The updates continue to be well-received by members, helping to consolidate sector knowledge and prompting member discussions and further engagement on key education issues.

Between August 2020 and April 2021, we completed an online discussion series titled “Learning from each other.” This series was developed in response to the Covid-pandemic with support from IEFG members and their partners. We also organised six virtual sessions and eCafés in response to member suggestions and to keep member foundations connected to global education debates and discussions.

Throughout the reporting period, the IEFG secretariat continued to support the foundation constituencies for several global education policy bodies, including the Global Partnership for Education and the SDG4 Education 2030 High Level Steering Committee (convened by UNESCO). We also worked to establish a foundations’ constituency within Education Cannot Wait. Members were encouraged to participate in these international education initiatives through our updates, communications portal and webinars.

This past year has been one of major internal changes. We said goodbye to our Office Administrator, Liv Fredricksen and our long-serving Executive Director, Megan Haggerty

gave notice in February 2021. Following a thorough recruitment process we look forward to welcoming Laura Savage on board as the new IEFG Executive Director in October 2021. In line with British charity laws, we returned to a financing model that is based on voluntary member contributions.

Following the necessary cancellation of all in-person member events, one of the key activities for the year ahead is the IEFG’s first virtual symposium focused on the theme of out of school children and learning loss in May 2021. Between January and May 2021, the IEFG programming team with the support of a member-composed planning committee designed and curated a three-day event comprising three spotlight (plenary) sessions, ten breakout sessions, two peer support networking sessions and two networking events.

Lastly, following the successful launch of a new IEFG Member Site (Member Clicks) and communications platform (MS Teams), the IEFG Secretariat is working on the development of an interactive dashboard to visualise trends and gaps in the IEFG funding landscape.

Philanthropy for Social Justice and Peace (PSJP)

2020-21 was an extraordinary year, precipitated significant shifts in the PSJP strategy. As the pandemic hit, we paused to reflect with our partners and recognise that we are living in a time of unprecedented challenge – the pandemic, political polarisation, growing tribalism and nationalism, long delayed racial reckoning in parts of the world, exacerbation of gender inequities, rising poverty, gaping inequality, and the imminent climate catastrophe. In thinking about the future, no one wanted to go back to the world the way it was. There was a strong desire to #BuildBackBetter.

Out of this came a call for more strategic learning about concepts that are central to our work of transformation but are seldom discussed in terms of how they underpin our day-today work. We organized a series of peer learning sessions featuring case studies and research on disaster resilience. The three case studies have since been published in a working paper showcasing those development practices, such as supporting a strong local leadership, strengthening civil society organizations and their networks and promoting community philanthropy, that build resilience. A second series of sessions focused on Martin Luther King’s notion of the ‘beloved community’. How do we build the ‘beloved community’ as the ultimate expression of the systemic transformations we seek in

the world today? We explored these questions by grounding them in the day-to-day work of three practitioners and what they have learned about understanding and alleviating suffering, building compassionate communities, about decent care values, dignity, solidarity, hope and about justice.

Towards the goal of #buildingbackbetter we have also started a series of conversations with a new generation of thinkers, impact investors, philanthropists, activists and social entrepreneurs on how to build markets that work for the common good. The project aims to contribute to a joint narrative and action agenda on regenerative and just economies. The

Global Dialogue Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 30 April 2021 Page 10

DocuSign Envelope ID: 86DE06D6-98D3-48A8-A5DD-C6CF75E78407

key question of this project is to identify the necessary encounters that will result in an economy that is just and regenerative.

In addition, the last few years (and particularly the pandemic months) have brought to the fore the fact that some of the most transformational and ground-breaking social justice changes are happening through the efforts of people and platforms that are not part of the standard aid architecture or the formalised civil society system (such as small communitybased mobilizations to local civic structures to large-scale social movements). PSJP has been exploring how to support and create space for the collective voices of these actors to be amplified and heard. We have, together with the Centre on African Philanthropy and Social Investment (CAPSI) supported research on how philanthropy interacts with popular organising in Africa, using the lens of social movements as an entry point. This work culminated in a paper Institutional Philanthropy and Popular Organising in Africa: Some Initial Reflections from Social Movement Activists. A follow up paper furthers the case and challenges the philanthropic sector to ‘be revolutionized to work in conscious, empathetic and transformative ways.’

A transformative approach to ensuring that the development agenda and the narrative for change are informed by those on the frontline of the work requires both deep listening for understanding as well as spaces for solidarity building. Therefore another shift at PSJP relates to how we operate based on the realization that we are transformed by our encounters. This understanding has been modelled in our learning circles that are dialogue spaces: non-confrontational, safe space where there are no wrong or right answers but everybody is in it together to share authentically, listen deeply and in the process to ‘cocreate meaning’. This process has embodied the spirit of the African work Ubuntu ‘I am because you are’ and has worked. Participants find these ‘Learning circles’ extremely meaningful in creating a sense of community, in unpacking complex concepts such as ‘dignity’ and applying them to their practice. This approach is now being developed in other areas including ‘social movements’ and ‘peacebuilding’ such as the series ‘Let’s Build Peace, Here and Now’.

In the coming year, PSJP will focus on developing dialogue spaces as well as sharing the narrative and learning emerging from them.

General Grant - making

Global Dialogue’s general grant-making enables funders and philanthropists to make grants for human rights and social change worldwide. In 2020-21 our general grant-making included support for the Collective Psychology Project, now Larger Us, in partnership with the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation. During 2021-22, Global Dialogue will continue to manage the grants in our General Grant-making portfolio and report to donors as required, and will implement the recommendations of the Regranting Review mentioned above including hiring a Grants Manager.

Special Initiatives

Our Special Initiatives programme enables us to work with funders to research and develop new philanthropic initiatives. In 2020-21 this work included the scoping phase of an

international philanthropy commitment on climate change, developed in partnership with DAFNE and others, which was launched in the autumn of 2021 as #philanthropyforclimate.

Financial Review of Global Dialogue

During the financial year 2020-21 Global Dialogue received income of £2,522,290 (2019-20: £1,571,565) and made payments of £1,623,689 (2019-20: £1,416,536) in relation to its charitable activities and governance. This resulted in net incoming resources of £886,601 for the year, which increased total reserves from £834,177 to £1,720,998. The funds held by Global Dialogue include restricted funds, which have been segregated by programme (reflecting the way in which funds are separately managed and controlled) and unrestricted funds available for discretionary use.

Global Dialogue’s trustees have set a target level for unrestricted reserves of £25,000 which is approximately three months unrestricted expenditure, and the trustees recognise that the continued changes in Global Dialogue’s programme portfolio will require an increase in this target. Reserves are shown in the Balance Sheet as unrestricted funds and the total amount held at 30 April 2021 (excluding designated reserves) was £4,995. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in these accounts.

Our principal funding sources during 2020-21 were charitable trusts and foundations who share our commitment to promoting human rights and supporting social change, and our expenditure in pursuit of this commitment included our grantmaking, and our support for Ariadne, the Five Foundation, the Funders’ Initiative for Civil Society, Migration Exchange, Philanthropy for Social Justice and Peace, and the International Education Funders Group.

We’re grateful to our funders and partners for their support during 2020-21, a time of extraordinary challenge and change.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GLOBAL DIALOGUE

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Global Dialogue (the ‘parent charity’) and its’ subsidiary (together ‘the group’) for the year ended 30[th] April 2021 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, the Consolidated and Parent Charity Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statement of Cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 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:

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 group 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 the group’s or parent charity’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.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information.

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 audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GLOBAL DIALOGUE

is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the parent charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report included within the trustees’ 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:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 13, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of 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 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 group or parent charity 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GLOBAL DIALOGUE

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 is detailed below:

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located 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 opinion we have formed.

The financial statements are prepared in Sterling which is the functional currency of the Group.

1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(f)

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred and included any VAT which cannot fully be recovered.

(l) Expenditure on charitable activities comprises expenditure related to the direct furtherance of the Charity’s objectives as well as support costs. Grants payable are included under charitable expenditure when a contract is signed with the grantee.

(g) Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation

Tangible fixed assets costing over £500 (including any incidental expenses of acquisition) are capitalised.

(h) Investment Income

Investment Income arises from interest receivable on funds held in interest bearing bank accounts.

19. CORPORATION TAX

The charity is exempt from tax on income and gains falling within section 505 of the Taxes Act 1988 or section 252 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects.

20. GOING CONCERN

Despite the continuing challenges of 2020-21 relating to the coronavirus pandemic, Global Dialogue remains a going concern. The Charity has looked 12 months into the future and believes it will be able to cover its operational costs for that period from a combination of confirmed grants and existing funds. The Charity expects to cover any running costs which are not yet covered by confirmed grants at the date of approval of these accounts through savings or additional grants, which the Charity has a reasonable level of confidence in achieving based on the stage of various grant applications and previous success rates. The Trustees review the going concern position at every Board meeting to ensure that this is kept under review and that any necessary steps to manage the financial position are taken.
