It has been an incredibly challenging year locally and globally.. signs of climate breakdown have been increasing with forest f ires, f looding and record-breaking sea and air temperatures., the cost- of-living crisis has squeezed budgets at home and overseas., conf licts and natural disasters have created untenable situations f or people around the world,. an increasingly hostile environment f or refugees has prevailed. Despite all this, communities and individuals in Wales have donated, f undraised, organised, campaigned and designed solutions, contining to work towards a more hopef ul f uture. We are proud to have played a part in this- Climate Cymru showcased work of communities in Wales on the climate and nature crises during the Green Tour, and took voices of people across Wales to campaign for change on energy policy, nature policy and a just transition, achieving some meaningful policy changes. Our global learning interventions continued to mobilise thousands of people, especially young people towards action that makes a difference on the big issues that matter to them f rom starting petitions to recognise climate ref ugees, to creating awareness campaigns for sanctuary to working on inclusion in their communities, young people have continued to inspire us with their creativity and energy. Through our role with the Taith Sector Support Body for Youth, we've worked in partnership to support 45 youth organsitions to work towards international exchanrje, creating crucial opportunities for young people to build relationships and partnershi ps with people around the world. Our heritaqe volunteers have made sure the positive campaigns and actions of our ancestors are available to inspire current and f uture generations through digitisation and cataloqing. We've ¢ontinued to drive forwards the (Jlobally responsible Wales goal of the Well-being of Future Generations act, pulling together research, influencing policy and supporting organisations. Through these and many more ways, we continue to f ind innovative ways to enable, support and inspire action to create a Wales and world f it f or current and future generations.

Our projects and new ideas are driven by staf f collaborating with partners and stakeholders. They are passionate about the work we do and it shows in their work every day. This kind of passion is key if we are to continue towards ourvision- the need for positive approaches to peace and human rights is greater than ever. We've seen huge advances in technologythis year, especiallyArtificial Intelligence. While we can embrace this new technology, we need to make sure the human voice is always present, and that peopleare not digitally excluded. That said, technologyalso allows usto make quicker, betterand deeperconnections with people around the world, and to make surethe voices of those in global majority countries are included more in ourwork. The shift in how people communicate, with the continued growth of social media, has changed how and when people get their news- opinion is increasingly polarized so we need to find newways to create space for d ialogue. As ourcurrent strategy comesto an end, we'll be engaging with people acrosswalesand the world to create our next strategy- a long term strategy forfuture generations that we hope will inspire people for years to come.

Though this has been exciting, it has also brought a range of logistical challenges in terms of communication, time management and delivery timescales. In Global Learning, we have had to approach projects with a flexible mindset (working with diff erent teams and team combinations, developing projects online or in person, during diff erent working hours and working with diff erent groups) and show courage in areas that we miqht know less about. With the new team dynamic, we have been investigating how to integrate diff erent combinations and instigate opportunities to allow our team to qet to know and trust each other with diff erent demands. Tech tools: We've experimented with new tools such as Trello to support cross team communication - so we can ensure that team mernbers working in diff erent areas on different days still know what one another are doing. We have also developed team meetings to skill share and ensure that new members of the team are up to speed. Funding environment: The loss of European f unding will be felt keenly from neKt year, in terms of being able to support every young person in Wales to have global citizenship opporturlities. Erasmus was one of our main sources of income and there are limited places where other f unding tnight be found for this work. Volunteer loss: The end of the ESC funded volunteers will inevitably curtail our communications and heritage capacity. These volunteers have brought much energy, d iverse thought and creativity to the team and will be hugely missed. 17

The Office of the Future Generations Commissioner asked WCIA to co-host a session with FA Wales and other stalfeholders to draft a values statement to underpin engagement in the World Cup.

As I worked my way through publications such as those of the New Commonwealth Society of the 1930s. it was surprising to see so many contributions from MPS across the political spectrum towards a broad and cohesive stance against war. Big names, from Labour Party leader Arthur Henderson to Conservative Viscount Halifax, were among these and it came as a stark contrast to the modern day where such movements and arguments seem to be on the fringes of mainstream political parties... It was fascinating to see how peace movements based within the Temple would themselves distribute information to engage local communities. This represents the preservation and sharing of tens of thousands of items and the volunteers involved desire huge credit for their input. We were also able to commission a prof essional report by specialist Kevin Bolton make recommendations in how to preserve the archive. Actions based on those recommendations were built into the subsequent volunteering programme. Volunteers developed confidence in delivering tours and many people throughout the year benef ited. We also launched online self-guided tours for those visiting the Temple independently. My favourite example was looking through a collection of League of Nations leaflets from the 1920s-30s: one contained the script to a play l)ased on working class women- one in the UK and one in Japan- trying to convince their opathetic families of the League's importance. It read very much like a modern- day TV commercial.- 25

Despite this, f unding remains a real challenge. To charge the network a mandatory membership would make it exclusive, and mean losing breadth and diversity. Some aspects of Climate Cymru's potential work are not easily packacjed into an appealing grant application for Trusts and Foundations.

Vision. Misslon, and Goals Our vision is a globally responsible Wales that acts in solidarity with the people of Af rica. Our mission is to catalyze change, contributing to global development Dutcomes by supporting the Wales and Af rica communities. We distributed circa £12,000 in grants to13 Wales and Africa partnerships to develop digital partnership working. Twelve groups who worked with us reported and demonstrated effective adaption and increased knowledge, confidence, and skills. Thirty-three groups engaged in the over311 programme without necessarily applying f Dr a grant. 31 people attended training and events, all of which were rated highlyllOO /¢ of workshop participants who provided feedback said they improved their knowledge, and 96 /0 increased their conf idence in the topics) Safeguarding Safeguarding remains a priority for Hub Cymru Af rica and is the bedrock of best practic?. Through discussion and co-working with WCVA, HCA has improved the guidance and r&quirements for partnerships applying f or Wales Af rica grants, leading to more erlgagement and higher prioritisation of safeguarding within partnerships. This is excellent newsforthe broadersector as it continues to drive improvements rather than settling f or a baseline engagement with the issues. HCA received consistently excellent feedback f rom groups and individuals. There is a requirement for Welsh government-f unded groups to participate ir) oursessions, but outside of thisrequirement, groups adapted the learning. Achievements include.. To achieve ourvisionand mission, weaqreed on three priority goals to work towards Goal l - Building a stronger, more effective sector Goal 2- Support the community we work with to become anti-racist and actively inclusive Goal 3- Making the caseforglobal solidarity Alongside the new strateqy, we adopted the term 'global solidarity, instead of 'international development, as it better reflects the wide range of activity our partners do under the'Hub Cymru Africa, partnership. Dellverlng our Strategy In the first year of this strategic period, we er)sured that, as far as possible, we could use our current grant f unding to deliver our new goals and apply for fundingthat had a clearlineto helping us innovate towards them. Improved risk assessment and mitigation Improved saf eguarding policies better ref lect the context and practice Saf eguarding focal points identified and trained Goal l- Building a stronger, more effective sector Digital Development In a world feeling the impacts of covid and climate change, digital adaption in low-resource partnerships was deemed essential but also challengingtoachieve. As budgets shrink, air travel continues to harm the climate, and people become more familiar with digital platforms, we wanted to push this change f orward. Thanks to Waterloo Foundation, we delivered some signif icant achievements and outcomes. Improved communication f low between partners, particularly about reporting Improved understanding of the Saf eguarding cycle and best practice Summer Summlts Feedback was excellent from HCAS summer events, which reached nearly 90 people134 in Cardiff, 22 in Bangor, and 33 in Swanseal. I n Cardiff, the focus was on Climate Justice, while events in Bangor and Swansea showcased Women in Leadership and sustainable livelihoods respectively. Many groups were more prepared to attend smaller local events as COVID-19 continued to disrupt. 40

Ec9354EE-DC77452B-8F1A-797A48D88379 Goal 2- Support the cornrnunity we work with to become anti-racist and actively inclusive Anti-Racist Charter distributed grants to Size of Wales, Bees f or Development, Teams4U, and Oolen Cymru lin Lesothol. In 2022-23, HCA began the roll out of the Wales and Africa Anti-racist Charter. Wales Africa groups hold a unique space of being small, IDW-resource, and working internationally. Diff erent Power dynamics had to addressed between partners, and often existing advice and guidance assumed paid members of staff and budgets to address organisational culture. HCA consulted widely with Wales Africa grDUPS and drew in experts to advise us on the steps groups could begin to take to work through specif ic issues with a Charter and accompanying toolkit. Many groups signed up in 2022-23. Volunteering The'lnternational Devèlopment, sector is hard to access and competitive. Numerous reports in the last f ew years conf irmed this, including Bond's report Racism Power and Truth.. Ex eriences Df r in Development. Formany, thefirst step intoa careercan be volunteering, and we ensured our volunteering scheme ref lected the diversity of the population in Wales. Over the year, 21 peopl2 were active in the Hub Cymru Africa volunteer scheme, including13 new volunteers. Of the new volunteers, we hav participants f rom the African continent, the Caribbean, India, one from Mariupol, Ukraine, and two from the UK. HCA disseminated learning through podcasts featuring speakers from Uganda, Lesotho and Wales, convened a gender community of practice chaired by a partner in Uganda, ran bespolfe workshop sessions at the online conferences and held shared learning events. This work culminated in an International Women's Dayevent in partnership with Welsh Government. Goal S- Making the case for global solidarity Research HCA worked with the Oevelopment Engagement Lab to undertake Wales-specif ic research to establish attitudes to engagement with global Poverty and sustainable development. It revealed that- 22 /9 of the Welsh public are considered 'purposively eng8cJed', compared with only 19/. in Great Britain. The research f urther reported that"The Welsh are11 /0 more likely to engage with global poverty by discussing it with f riends, familyorothers. The Welsh public are 3 /0 more likely to purchase or boycott goods based on the product or company s engagement with global poverty reduction. The Welsh public are most likely to engage with global poverty through reading, watchincj, or listening tothe news. Theyare least likely to engage by attending a march, rally, or protest related to olobal poverty. We have shared this research through our channels and recorded a podcast. This work provides a baseline for tracking whether Hub Cymru Af rica and other organisations are having the intended impact on public opinion. International Learning Opportunities We played a signif icant role in delivering the International Learning Opportunities proqramme, which focuses on mutual learning between Wales and partners in Uganda, Lesotho, and Namibia. The programme aims to develop leadership in Wales and mutual learning, demonstrating the value of global solidarity through joint working and the development of partnerships. Our role has been assessing, training, and supporting candidates through their journey. This work was mothballed durirlg the height of the COVI D pandemic, and on its 41 One of HCA'S volunteers at WaAHLN said.. "I can't emphasise how grateful l am to be able to learn so many new skills while making an impact. These experiences have really helped boost my confidence and have made my transition to Wales so much smoother. I'm also learning a lot about the health system which I think will really come in handy.- HCA recognise that many volunteers still come f rom a Higher Education background, and there is a need to reach people of different socio-economic backgrounds further. To widen access, HCA will explore paid internships, which are better for people who cannot volunteer their time for free.

The Temple of Peace was the host for Wales and was open to the public for 6 weeks, with 6sessionsa daythrough theweekand 10 sessions per day on weekends. We estimate that over 3000 people came to visit the Dreamachin8 8xperience at the Temple of Peace during the 6 week timeframe. Our aim as a venue hosting the exhibition was to attract new audiences into the building. Thiswas successfuland has resulted in more than one wedding booking, more applicants f Drjob vacancies at the building, newworking relationshipswith Cardiff Council, and increased interest in the originsand historyof the building. 111 Filming and other events Filming bookings decreased this year as the backlog f rom the pandemic has evened out 43

The 2022 Durga Pula festival at the Temple of Peace proved very successful and has been booked ahead for 2023, 2024 and 2025. We also saw the introduction of Candlelight Concerts to Cardiff, a popular series of orchestral performances by candle light that have brought new audiencestothe building. Since hosting Drearnachine and the Candlelight Concerts, there has beena noticeable increase in requests f or tours of the building from people that are interested in learning more about the history and the Book of Remembrance. fil Tradingat the Temple of Peace Much of ourtrading atthe Temple is 'primary purpose, trading- it provides an income while contributing to our core purposes. For example, we rent out off ice space to other international charities, and offer discounted hire rates to charities and grassroots groups hiring out the venue for educational activities or events. We also hire out the venue for weddings and parties, with a hope that as many people as possible learn about the Temple of Peace and understand its place in Welsh internationalism and peacebuilding, past and present. 44

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP,. make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements,. and prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. The trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the tharity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity IAccounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed.

EC9354EE-DC774S2B-8F1A-797A46D88379 Report of the independent auditors to the members of the Welsh Centre for International Affairs for the year ended 31 March 2023 Opinion We have audited the financial statements of Welsh Centre for International Affairs (the 'charity'l for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and the notes to the financial statements, including signifitant 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 Iunited Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). In our opinion, the financial statements.. give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 March 2023 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended,. have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. Basls for oplnlon We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing IUKI IISAS IUKII 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 charity 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 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 contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and 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 51

Docusign Env&lope ID". EC9354EE-DC774S2B-8F1A-797A46D88379 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. Matters on which we are required to report by exception We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion.. the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees, report,. or sufficient accounting records have not been kept,. or the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records,. or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the statement of trustees, responsibilities, the trustees 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 charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concem and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Audltor's responslbllltles for the audlt of the flnanclal ststements We have been appointed as 3uditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 20113nd report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. 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 IUKI 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. A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council's website at.. https'.//www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report. Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above and on the Financial Reporting Council's website, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. We obtain and update our understanding of the entity, it5 activities, its control environment, and likely future developments, including in relation to the legal and regulatory framework applicable and how the entity is complying with that framework. Based on this understanding, we identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. This includes consideration of the risk of acts by the entity that were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud. In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, including fraud, we designed procedures which included- Enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims as well as actual, suspected and alleged fraud; 52

Docusign Env&lope ID". EC9354EE-DC774S2B-8F1A-797A46D88379 Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance,. Assessing the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations considered to have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the entity through enquiry and inspection,. Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations,. Performing audit work over the risk of management bias and override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for indicators of potential bias. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leadinE to a material misststement 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 of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higherthan for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Other matter5 Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with 'Accounting and Reporting by Charitie5'.

Use of our report This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with part 4 of the Charities IAccounts and Reports) Regulations 2008.
