Transparency.
Responsibility begins with openness.
We show who we are, what we do and how we use our funds.
eMission-X gGmbH publishes key information about its organisation, activities and funding. We continue to follow voluntarily the ten transparency criteria of Initiative Transparente Zivilgesellschaft (ITZ), which we committed to in 2024. eMission-X is not currently participating in ITZ.
