Der neue Vorstand stellt sich vor – Open Knowledge Österreich

From Google Translate: "Each organization goes through different phases in its existence. Six years after its founding, a generational change took place in Open Knowledge Austria last summer. The founding members and the former executive committee, who successfully supported the association in Austria for six years with their voluntary work, handed over their operational activities to a new Management Board last year. We are very pleased that these long so central people will remain the members and supporters of the association and would like to thank all the participants for their numerous activities.

We use our time, our vigor and our know-how for free knowledge in all its forms, as we are fully convinced that free knowledge is a central building block for our digital future. We would like to go and try new and innovative ways with you, which give the openness space. Therefore, it is important to us that the association is on a stable footing to tackle the next challenges.

"We want an open world in which knowledge can be shared and shared by all!"

To achieve this, we focus on: 1) community work and 2) funding. We want to work even more with you, the open community, to free and use knowledge. We invite you to get involved with us, to contribute ideas, to get to know like-minded people and to free knowledge. As a second focus in addition to community work, we want to build a stable financial base. This will help us to ensure that the association is professionalized and that a longer-term organizational development is possible. Last but not least, we want to communicate more clearly what we stand for, who we are and what we do."
