The transition of Voice from phase 1 to the extension phase carried into 2022, as the final re-allocations from the phase 1 budget to contracts made during the extension phase were completed this year. We have finally expended EUR 35 million of the phase 1 grant budget, pending a small amount tied up in irregular- ity cases. Additionally in 2022, we received a cost-extension approval from the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs to continue grant im- plementation up to June 2024. This has provided much needed time both to the Voice teams and current and potential grantee partners to be able to carry out their work effectively. The table above presents an over- view of the initial targets set for the Voice programme in terms of per- centage distribution of the overall grant budget as disaggregated by the key criteria outlined on the left. As seen above, there is consistency in key trends across all the criteria as seen from year to year. This con- cerns not only those criteria where

there are minor variations from the set targets, such as the rightsholder groups but also those where there are significant differences such as grant modalities and types of organ- isations. Regarding grant modalities the variations can be attributed to the focus that has developed within the Voice programme to supporting local, emergent initiatives led by rightsholders. The variations concerning types of organisations can be attributed to the contractual requirement placed upon Voice to not make grant agreements with unregistered organisations. Finally, regarding themes it is important to mention that the final context analysis update was carried out by Voice teams in the first semester of 2022. Some calls for proposals were released prior to the finalisation of the context analysis update keeping in view the impending close of the overall programme. As a consequence, all thematic priorities highlighted in the context analysis update may not have been addressed by the calls for proposals.
