Project R is a Switzerland-based cooperative fighting for independent journalism, freedom of expression, public debate and a functioning democracy.
We are reclaiming journalism as a profession and are creating a new business model that places our readers at the center. Our digital magazine «Republik» (in German) launched in January 2018. «Republik» is reader-owned, independent and ad-free.
Project R is an open-source cooperative, and we share our knowledge, software and business insights with other projects who also want to foster democracy and free speech around the world.
In May 2017, we collected about € 3.1m in a crowdfunding campaign in which we sold nearly 14'000 memberships. We started publishing in January 2018 and now have over 20'000 members that support our mission.
