Our funding

Institute for Development of Freedom of Information (IDFI) receives funding from a variety of sources, including international funds, governments of foreign countries, international and/or local organizations and institutions, and private companies and individuals.


IDFI accepts funding only if its purpose is in line with the organization's vision and objectives and if doing so does not negatively affect IDFI’s reputation and independence.


We refuse to accept funding from government institutions, political parties, and/or persons affiliated with them.


Information about the sources of our funding is public. For transparency purposes, we proactively publish information about our projects and their funding on our website, as well as any other relevant websites.

 

In 2015, 2016 and 2018, IDFI was listed among the most transparent think tank organizations in the world - receiving a 5 Star Award from Transparify.
