    Other financial info

    WWF Network
    Throughout the year, many WWF offices provided WWF EPO with their expertise and advocacy support. Fourteen offices contributed financially to our office. This support makes it possible to operate, make a real impact in Brussels and help address issues raised by millions of WWF supporters around Europe and the world.

    Foundations
    WWF EPO is supported both financially and in policy development by major foundations. We are grateful for the continued support from the European Climate Foundation, the MAVA Foundation, and Oceans 5 and the Paul M. Angell Family Foundation.

    Business Alliances
    Our effectiveness is enhanced by our cooperation with leading business groups willing to join us in building common advocacy positions. For example WWF has worked with the Association for Beverage Cartons and the Environment (ACE) for the past nine years, a major player in the beverage carton industry.

    European Commission
    We continued to receive an operational grant from the European Commission through the LIFE Programme. We also received project funding via the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (Norad).

    WWF has taken into account the guidelines of the EU Civil Society Contact Group and the Alliance for Lobbying Transparency and Ethics Regulation in the EU, when estimating the annual costs related to the activities covered by the register.

    Other financial information:
    WWF EPO annual audited accounts are publically available on https://cri.nbb.be/bc9/. As WWF EPO has a branch office located in Rome, the audited figures must include WWF MEDPO based in Rome; This legal requirement accounts for the difference between the figures posted above and those of our audited accounts.
