Open institutional information
Public benefit requires visible accountability.
CIE publishes this page to bring its legal identity, public-benefit purpose, policy approach, governance, activities and financial reporting together at one permanent location.
The page is structured around the publication requirements for Dutch Public Benefit Organisations (ANBIs). Information about possible tax benefits for donors is available separately.

Purpose
Heritage and memory as tools for justice, resilience and positive change.
CIE works towards a more inclusive cultural world by challenging one-sided histories and creating space for voices that have often been overlooked. It supports fairer and more sustainable futures in which communities can tell their own stories and care for their own cultural places, practices and traditions.
CIE addresses past and ongoing injustices connected to colonialism, inequality and exclusion through education, research, digital and traditional storytelling and close collaboration with communities.

How CIE pursues its purpose
These policy-plan highlights describe CIE’s planned work, sources of income and management of funds and reserves.
Activities and priorities
CIE organises its work through five connected clusters: Dhakira–Heritage Justice, HeritageLab, Heritage Ecology Journeys, Heritage Futures and Heritage EduHub. Programmes, projects, seminars, publications, learning resources and digital platforms connect these lines in practice.
Explore the programme structure ↗How income is raised
CIE’s income may include project and service income, grants, institutional partnerships, restricted and unrestricted donations, reimbursements and limited interest income. Funding is sought for defined public-benefit activities and organisational continuity.
Partners and funders ↗Management and expenditure
Funds are held in CIE’s bank account and used for its public-benefit purpose. The statutory board oversees financial management. Restricted donations are recorded separately and used for their designated purpose; general reserves support approved work and continuity.
Designated-donation commitment ↗Statutory governance
Board and remuneration
