Respekt.net

Description

Respekt.net is an Austrian crowdfunding platform that connects people with socio-political project ideas to people willing to support them financially. Run by a small team, it accompanies organisations and private individuals personally through the process of launching a crowdfunding campaign. It works to ensure high transparency for donors.

Its stated aim is to advance private, economic and public life by supporting projects that citizens and organisations bring forward for the benefit of society. The platform also runs the project ProEuropeanValuesAT. Through this project, it supports civil society organisations across Austria in carrying out projects for democracy and human dignity.

Respekt.net is operated by Respekt.net-GmbH, based in Vienna. It is backed by an associated society for promoting respect, tolerance, openness and solidarity-based progress in society. Visitors can submit a project for funding, register an account, or support existing projects on the platform.
