- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Group or Parent Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “In 2024, the Amnesty International movement continued to protect and promote human rights globally through impactful research, bold advocacy, legal interventions, and people-powered mobilisation.”
- “Significant progress was made across international and regional fora, notably in strengthening normative standards on freedom of expression in areas such as surveillance, SLAPPs (Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation), and press freedom.”
- “In Chile, Amnesty successfully revived investigations against Carabineros commanders for violations committed during 2019 protests through its Eyes on Chile campaign. This led to the indictment of three senior commanders in 2024.”
- “Amnesty worked to end forced evictions globally. For example, in Côte d'Ivoire, large-scale operations in Abidjan demolished 176 sites considered to be at risk of flooding.”
- “Amnesty's climate justice work made high-profile advances in 2024. The organisation contributed to conflict-of-interest policies adopted at COP28 and influenced EU due diligence legislation with environmental protections.”
- “At the multilateral level, Amnesty influenced new UN mandates monitoring violations in Afghanistan and the Sahel. Amnesty's crisis-response work in Gaza and Ukraine was especially impactful. In Gaza, the organisation was among the first NGOs to publish evidence of genocide.”
- “Death Penalty: Amnesty achieved further progress towards abolition. Advances occurred in 13 countries, where governments formally declared moratoria or committed to reviewing legislation.”
- “The number of active supporters increased by almost 25%, rising from 6.08 million in 2022 to 7.6 million in 2023, before declining by 12% to 6.66 million in 2024.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
