Networked organizations and professional associations

Enabling members to decide and track the spending of collective funds (e.g. from membership fees)

World Wildlife Fund

WWF Switzerland uses Cobudget to make more visible the projects that different regional WWF groups are currently funding. This makes it easy for groups to share feedback with each other, collaborate on and even co-finance each other's projects–allowing for more ambitious, cross-regional projects in the long term.

Swiss Climate Fund

The Swiss Climate Fund supports grassroots climate activism projects in Switzerland. Cobudget allows them to run a transparent, multi-lingual, open process where climate activists from all over the country publicly share ideas and request funding for climate impact projects. The funding decisions are made by a group of the climate activists themselves, with funding rounds of up to 156 000 EUR.

Granting bodies

Making submission and granting processes transparent

Co-working and co-living spaces

Crowdsourcing ideas and pooling money towards them

Blivande

Blivande is a creative hub in Stockholm that offers facilities, tools and materials for artists and ‘makers’ to do their work. They use Cobudget for their members to generate ideas and decide together how to spend part of the revenue from membership fees, such as on new tools for their workshop.

Our story

Cobudget’s origins go back to 2014, when two different self-organized communities began (independently from each other)  experimenting with collaborative funding: the Enspiral Network from Aotearoa New Zealand, and The Borderland community from Scandinavia.

Thanks to the initiative, drive and technical skills of a handful of members of both those communities, their fledgling collaborative funding practices were quickly turned from spreadsheets into software prototypes, leading to the creation of two different tools: Cobudget and Dreams.
