SORP reference contributed to global strategic discussions at the Animal Advocacy Strategic Forum in Los Angeles, hosted by Rethink Priorities. At the regional level, FAC convened a two-day hybrid event in India in March 2025, in collaboration with partners such as FWI, NALSAR University, and the Animal Law Policy Network, bringing together diverse stakeholders to advance dialogue and collaboration. A regional in-person event in Indonesia, further expanded the coalition’s geographic reach. In parallel, FAC strengthened movement-building through targeted facilitation and partnership development. This included connecting Cargill Philippines with PAWS to support improvements in pig welfare through accreditation and recommendations, as well as supporting the Institute of Research and Application of Advanced Biotechnology (IRAAB) in Vietnam in securing funding for a two-year, USD 75,000 project focused on advancing higher welfare chicken farming policies. FAC also provided advisory support to a Vietnam-based group, Vive, on regulatory frameworks related to slaughter and humane treatment, and facilitated connections with local experts to strengthen their advocacy and documentary campaign. These efforts demonstrate FAC’s role as a

SORP reference trusted intermediary, enabling collaboration, unlocking resources, and strengthening the capacity of local organisations. Communications and visibility were further enhanced through a series of targeted outputs, including social media engagement around Asia Farmed Animals Day (AFAD), podcast planning and outreach with participating organisations, and the “Featured Organisation of the Month” initiative, which highlighted the work of groups such as Sinergia Animal and Animal Ask. These initiatives contributed to amplifying member efforts, fostering knowledge exchange, and building a stronger sense of community within the coalition. Overall, FAC’s work during the period reflects a strategic and integrated approach, combining convening power, on-the-ground facilitation, and communications to drive progress for farmed animals. Through its regional and global engagements, targeted support to partners, and continued investment in movement-building, FAC has strengthened its position as a key platform for collaboration and impact in the farmed animal advocacy space across Asia.

SORP reference **Capacity in Animal Protection Coalition (CAPC)** The Capacity Advancement and Policy Coalition (CAPC) made significant progress in strengthening organisational capacity across the farmed animal advocacy movement through a structured combination of direct support and resource development. A core focus of CAPC’s work was the provision of sustained one-to-one support to member organisations throughout the year, with ongoing efforts to refine delivery processes, establish clearer timelines, and increase working group member engagement. This included onboarding new organisations such as Animal Nepal and Sneha’s Care, and supporting partners with key capacity needs including fundraising, monitoring and evaluation, and budgeting. Complementing this, CAPC advanced its internal strategy by developing a clear framework to guide when to provide direct advisory support versus signposting to external expertise, thereby improving clarity, efficiency, and consistency in its approach. A key area of achievement was the development of practical, Asiarelevant resources aimed at addressing commonly identified capacity

SORP reference gaps. This included the creation of easy-to-use templates and tools on organisational budgeting, corporate engagement, volunteer management, and broader campaigning strategies, designed in collaboration with an experts’ committee. These outputs were supported by parallel efforts to increase accessibility and visibility through communications, including a growing social media presence that highlighted CAPC’s services, shared knowledge in engaging formats, and encouraged participation through calls for mentees and interactive formats. In addition, CAPC contributed to knowledge generation through case studies, including documentation of organisational journeys such as that of the Animal Kingdom Foundation, and the compilation of contextual campaigning examples across Asia. CAPC also played an active role in convening and sector engagement, delivering a capacity-building workshop at the AfA Conference in Taipei and hosting open Q&A sessions to facilitate direct knowledge exchange between practitioners and experts. Regular quarterly working group meetings and advisory engagements ensured alignment, reflection, and continuous improvement, while the funding subgroup initially meeting monthly and later transitioning to bi-monthly, worked towards

SORP reference developing more structured and impactful funding mechanisms, including the creation of a funding pool proposal and engagement strategy with donors. Monthly and quarterly activities ensured that data, membership information, and public-facing materials remained accurate, up-to-date, and aligned with AfA’s branding and strategic priorities. Internal capacity was further strengthened through targeted team training initiatives focused on addressing recurring capacity needs identified across partner organisations. In 2025, CAPC’s work reflects a comprehensive and systems-oriented approach to capacity building combining direct support, resource creation, strategic clarity, and operational rigour. These efforts have strengthened the resilience and effectiveness of partner organisations, enhanced coordination within the coalition, and positioned CAPC as a critical enabler of long-term impact for farmed animal advocacy across the region. However, this working group had to be dissolved due to lack of funds.

SORP reference **Macaque Coalition (MACC)** The Macaque Coalition (MACC), in collaboration with its member organizations, delivered a comprehensive programme of advocacy, capacity building, research, and public engagement to advance macaque welfare and conservation across Asia. A major highlight was the successful delivery of **International Macaque Week 2025** , which significantly expanded its reach through coordinated global activities, including virtual tours in Indonesia and India, a cross-cultural educational exchange programme with partners such as STRAW India, and the launch of “Respect Their Nature” campaign and accessible public engagement resources. Feedback from participants reflected growing visibility and impact, with stakeholders noting that the initiative is increasingly reaching beyond traditional primate advocacy audiences. This was complemented by a strong communications portfolio, including multiple

SORP reference blogs, regular social media engagement, podcasts on key issues such as primate trade and behavioural rehabilitation. MACC also played a pivotal role in convening stakeholders and strengthening network through both internal and external engagements. This included workshops at the Asia for Animals Conference in Taipei, contributions to international forums such as the IPS 2025 Symposium, and public speaking engagements including academic lectures and media appearances. Internally, the Macaque Health Subgroup was established and operationalised through regular meetings and technical knowledgesharing sessions, enabling collaboration between organisations on practical health protocols. Beyond structured meetings, MACC facilitated numerous strategic connections linking conservationists, researchers, and enforcement bodies to foster collaboration on emerging issues such as wildlife cybercrime and microplastic ingestion in macaques. MACC advanced policy and research efforts, including the publication of a peer-reviewed paper on pet primates in Asia, contributions to discussions on conservation status assessments, and the development of joint advocacy outputs such as appeal letters addressing international

SORP reference trade concerns. Targeted interventions were also undertaken to address region-specific challenges, including work on macaque-related content creation at Angkor Wat and broader efforts to mitigate online animal cruelty. Resource development remained a key pillar of MACC’s work, with the creation and dissemination of multilingual educational materials, countryspecific infographics (including India, Indonesia, and Vietnam), and the translation of key resources to expand accessibility. These outputs were designed to support both grassroots organisations and public audiences, contributing to a growing shared resource pool across the network. Overall, MACC’s work reflects a highly collaborative, strategic, and adaptive approach integrating communications, research, partnerships, and practical interventions to strengthen the global response to macaque welfare and conservation challenges, while fostering an increasingly connected and effective advocacy community. **Dog and Cat Welfare Coalition (DACC)**

SORP reference The Dog and Cat Coalition (DACC) maintained a strong focus on operational effectiveness and internal systems strengthening while simultaneously expanding its programmatic reach and external impact. Robust internal coordination remained a priority, with monthly updates to working groups members. DACC’s external engagement was marked by a diverse portfolio of convenings, collaborations, and advocacy initiatives. DACC hosted quarterly members’ meetings, including a session focused on community engagement, where members shared evidence of improved human behaviour change, increased trust, and stronger local support for dog and cat welfare interventions. DACC also organised and contributed to a range of regional and international events, including the Dog and Cat Population Management Workshop at the AfA Conference Taipei 2025 (in collaboration with ICAM), speaking engagements at the Animal Welfare Conference Indonesia 2025 and iCatConnect 2025, and educational outreach through the Animal Alliance Asia programme in Jakarta. Additionally, DACC advanced planning and communications for its 2025 Regional Events, including a workshop in Indonesia in partnership with Battersea, and supported global campaigns such as

SORP reference World Rabies Day 2025 through the co-developed “Dog Health Champion” initiative with the Global Alliance for Rabies Control (GARC), mobilising community participation through training, certification, and digital advocacy. A key strength of DACC’s work during the year was its role as a facilitator of collaboration and knowledge exchange across the region. The Coalition enabled cross-border partnerships, including an international educational exchange between STRAW India and Animals Asia. DACC also coordinated logistical and resource support, including facilitating access to veterinary equipment for partners in Nepal through collaboration with Himalayan Animal Rescue Trust (HART) and Voice of Animal Nepal (VOAN). Targeted advisory support was provided to organisations on issues such as ethical fundraising approaches, zoonotic disease risks linked to hunting practices, and responses to emerging welfare concerns, including adoption-related scams in Hong Kong. DACC further strengthened its support to members through the development of strategic outputs and targeted interventions. This included initiating discussions on drafting “Guidelines on Humane

DACC also developed and advanced multiple advocacy letters addressing urgent issues, including an appeal to halt the development of greyhound racing infrastructure in Vietnam and a letter to the President of Türkiye opposing legislation permitting the mass killing of free-roaming dogs. In addition, DACC produced a range of knowledge and communications outputs to raise awareness and influence public discourse. These included a podcast series on “Shelter Fatigue,” blogposts on responsible stray animal feeding and the situation of street dogs in Türkiye, and social media campaigns aligned with global observances such as Responsible Pet Owners Month and World Stray Animals Day. Collectively, these efforts demonstrate DACC’s dual emphasis on strengthening internal systems and delivering impactful, collaborative, and evidence-based interventions, positioning the DACC working geroup as a key driver of coordinated action for companion animal welfare across Asia.

SORP reference **Social Media Animal Cruelty Coalition (SMACC)** The Social Media Animal Cruelty Coalition (SMACC) continued to play a central role in convening stakeholders, strengthening member capacity, and advancing systemic responses to online animal cruelty in 2025. A key focus was deepening engagement with major technology platforms, including ongoing dialogue with Meta, TikTok, and YouTube, aimed at improving policies, moderation systems, and responsiveness to animal cruelty content. This engagement was complemented by targeted advocacy efforts, such as supporting regulatory processes under the UK Online Safety Act. SMACC also maintained momentum in its policy work through engagement with policymakers, including discussions with a UK Member of Parliament to elevate the issue of online cruelty content. At the network level, SMACC facilitated regular working group and subgroup meetings, including those focused on cat abuse content, primate-related abuse (notably Angkor Wat). These forums enabled knowledge exchange, coordination of interventions, and alignment on strategy among member organizations. Efforts to expand and strengthen the coalition included outreach to new stakeholders, such as Chinese

SORP reference animal protection organizations, and initial engagement with platforms like Bilibili and Bluesky. Additionally, SMACC supported collaboration between international enforcement and wildlife crime actors, exemplified by facilitating connections between the IFAW Wildlife Cybercrime Global Team and YIARI’s Wildlife Crime Unit. A significant body of work was dedicated to developing practical tools and resources for members. This included progress on a standard operating procedure (SOP) toolkit for responding to online animal cruelty cases, incorporating decision trees, reporting templates, and communication guidance. Public awareness and outreach remained a consistent priority. SMACC contributed to external events, academic engagements, and educational initiatives, including presentations, school and university visits, and preparations for the SMACC Summit. Overall, SMACC’s work during this period reflects a maturing coalition that is increasingly effective in combining advocacy, evidence generation,

In 2025 efforts were directed toward producing thought leadership and policy-oriented outputs. This included the development of blogs analysing emerging policy developments, as well as the preparation and delivery of high-level presentations at key platforms such as the AfA Conference in Taipei and Lobby Week organized by World Federation for Animals in New York.

These resources were further supported through targeted promotional efforts to enhance their reach and utility among members. Collectively, these initiatives strengthened AfA’s visibility as a credible voice in animal policy discourse and facilitated meaningful engagement with regional and international stakeholders. The year 2025 also saw continued emphasis on collaboration and relationship-building. Engagements with stakeholders were aimed at fostering partnerships, enhancing knowledge exchange, and identifying opportunities for joint initiatives. These collaborative efforts are central to AfA’s approach of leveraging collective expertise and resources to achieve greater impact for animals across the region. Operationally, progress was made in streamlining workflows and ensuring effective tracking of tasks and deliverables. Overall, the period reflects a proactive and strategic approach to advancing AfA’s goals, with a balanced focus on policy influence, stakeholder engagement, and organizational effectiveness.

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The charity trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a)-(c) of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 does not apply. 

It is my responsibility to examine the financial statements as required under section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention 

1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: 

- to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1)(a) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and Regulation 4 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006, and 

- to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 

have not been met, or 

2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

## **ASIA FOR ANIMALS COALITION** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Charity information** 

Asia for Animals Coalition is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation. 

## **1.1 Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document,  the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended), FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention,  The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. 

## **1.3 Charitable funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives. 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity. 

## **1.4 Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. 

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. 

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

**(Continued)** 

## **1.5 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. 

## **1.6 Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. 

## **1.7 Financial instruments** 

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## _**Basic financial assets**_ 

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. 

## _**Basic financial liabilities**_ 

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. 

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_ 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

## **1.8 Employee benefits** 

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received. 

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits. 

## **1.9 Retirement benefits** 

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due. 

## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements** 

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
