Direct project expenditures (all amounts in EUR)
Projects to promote free knowledge are central to the budget plan. Target groups are as before
mainly volunteer communities for Wikimedia projects, members, and users. Furthermore we organize
projects in schools and universities. We support international cooperation on Wikimedia projects,
meetings on a multinational level, working together with the Wikimedia chapters and communities
in our neighbouring countries. We encourage the spreading of free knowledge and content,
particularly on Austria-related topics. We help writers and photographers to gain access to
libraries and archives, events and meetings, and support the development of skills and tools. We
attend meetings with local authorities and congresses related to Open Source and Open Content. For
2013, the following project expenditures are planned:
|
Indirect project expenditures (all amounts in EUR)
Aside from funds used directly for projects, there is a number of indirect administration
expenditures such as the office facilities, rent, salaries of non-project employees, or board
expenses. Some of these expenditures are classic administrative costs of membership associations,
such as members administration, general assembly, fees for changing the bylaws, and legal advice.
This part of the budget focuses on building and maintaining communication structures, in addition
and beyond single projects. Our facilities to publish our reports, provide informations, plan
public relations activities, and store our promotion material are being mentained. The center of
all these activities is our new Vienna-office, which opened in autumn 2012. This part of the
budget also comprises the costs for financial transactions and for all the accountancy.

Receipts (all amounts in EUR)
