Voice is committed to providing safe spaces filled with integrity and respect for ALL people as well as for financial resources. The consortium partners, Oxfam and Hivos - which make up the Voice implementation consortium, maintain a zero-tolerance policy to both fraud and safeguarding. The organisational processes are invoked pending on the country where a poten- tial integrity issue takes place. At the request of the Ministry, we have developed a webpage sharing our whistle-blower policy and explaining what happens when an issue is reported. This is obviously in addition to all the information that is available on the websites of Hivos and Oxfam. As Voice, we also have a reporting obligation to the Ministry directly. Considering our size, complexity and the (reasonable) risks Voice takes in its grant-making approach to

serve the groups we stand for, it is inevitable that issues occur. Also here, we take a learning approach and as much as possible, resulting in a strengthened due diligence, grant management, and monitoring processes. This same learning approach we also en- courage among our partners, even encouraging them to be open about it without compromising personal safety and confidentiality There are currently a total of 7 (open) integrity cases being dealt with by Voice. Of these, 5 cases have been pending closure from past years and 2 are new cases identified in 2021.

Notes: Small discrepancies in overview are caused by rounding differences. In early 2019 a 0% VAT rate was approved for all costs outside of the Netherlands. This means that more funds are available for Voice.
