TRANSPARENCY
We take our work as a non-profit organisation very seriously and therefore attach great importance to transparency
Uniform publication obligations for non-profit organizations do not exist in Austria. Anyone working for the non-profit sector should tell the community what the organization’s goals are, where the funds come from, how they are used, and who the decision makers are.
We support the idea of the Transparent International Initiative, in which many civil society and academic stakeholders have defined ten basic points.
