The financial report of the World Council of Churches for 2014 is the first in the new cycle of work from 2014-2021. The 10th Assembly, Busan 2013, called the churches and ecumenical partners to join in a pilgrimage of justice and peace. For the period until the 11th Assembly, the Council’s strategic direction, in response to that call, is to move forward together with member churches and ecumenical partners, in pilgrimage, promoting justice and peace in our world, as an expression of faith and unity.

In 2014, the World Council of Churches reported total income of CHF 29.4 million, total expenditure and transfers of CHF 28.1 million, and a resultant net increase in funds and reserves of CHF 1.3 million. Of that increase, CHF 1.2 million concerned the endowment funds.
