HEAVY GUNS FOR PEACE
Aiming to promote peace in areas of conflict, this international charity works both with people affected by war and with those developing international "peacebuilding" policies, like the EU and UN. In 2007 it provided support to genocide survivors in Rwanda, promoted gender equality in post-conflict areas, and influenced the UN Peacebuilding Commission, amongst other things. The annual report is lucid and forthcoming, but we'd like to see evidence of performance targets and monitoring.
QUALITY OF REPORTING
What is this? |
71 % |
How much info does the charity want to share? This score, taken from our search for 43 key points in the annual report, gives the answer. Top mark is 100%. Anything over 70% is a good effort. |
SIZE OF CHARITY...
What is this? |
Medium |
We only profile the largest charities in England & Wales, and our sizes are relative to the largest and smallest among them. So where we describe a charity as 'Small', it is still much larger than the national average. |
HIGHEST SALARY
What is this? |
£60k to £79k |
Taken from the vague bandings given in annual reports; note that 'Under £60k' could be £9k or £59k. Nonetheless the number of bars should roughly correlate with the 'Size of charity' bars. |
ETHICAL INVESTMENT POLICY
What is this? |
Unknown |
We asked the charity if it has an ethical investment policy. If yes, it gets an angel. Those with no policy but which don't invest in tobacco/arms get a halo. Those without investments, or who didn't respond, appear neutral. Those with stakes in arms/tobacco get a fallen angel. |
But don't just take our word for it...
