👀 Who is H&D
Hackers & Designers is a non-profit workshop initiative organizing activities at the intersection of technology, design and art. By creating shared moments of hands-on learning H&D stimulates collaboration across disciplines, technological literacy, and different levels of expertise. H&D currently consists of nine people forming a decentralized organization that distributes power over finances and decision making. H&D is funded by Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie since 2015 and works with several other intersecting sources of public funding.
The nature of our organization is most of the time unruly, changing and chaotic and our "decentralized" approach to administrative and financial tasks is best described as awkward; but:
- We make our own budgets and spreadsheets
- We try to stick to them, but attune to changes and account for them as best as we can
- We write our own reports and reflections on our budgets to our funders
- We are doing our best
👀 The pay
110 hours a year (around 2 hours/week) 50,- per hour, 5500,- invoiced.
