TRIALOGUE EDUCATIONAL TRUST
Through the "Club of Three", the Trialogue Educational Trust works with leaders in government, business, civil society and academia in France, Germany, the UK and across Europe in order to develop cross-border responses to the major geo-strategic, social and economic challenges of our time. All other work was transferred to the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (charity number 1141069) in 2016.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity experienced a temporary deficit due to a synchronised shift in funding, resulting in a net expenditure of £59,800 for the year. To safeguard its core mission, the Trustees approved a drawdown from unrestricted general reserves, reducing them from £78,696 to £18,575. However, the filing confirms that all funding streams have returned to historic baselines and the charity remains a going concern.
