This is a living document. We are early in our formalisation process, so we are still learning a lot. As such, our expenses policy may be adapted to reflect our changing needs and the lessons we learn.

What will we pay for?

In principle, we will approve expenses which help to further FORRT’s mission. This includes (but is not limited to):

Compensating contributors for time or specialist skills used to support FORRT and/or its projects;
Registration, travel, accommodation and subsistence for events and training which further FORRT’s mission, e.g. speaking about FORRT projects at conferences;
Infrastructure costs, e.g. website hosting and maintenance;
Other goods or services which further FORRT’s mission.

The Directors will discuss all expenses. Approval will be granted if the majority of Directors agree that the expense furthers FORRT's mission.

How can I get paid?

Submit your expense through Open Collective. Please include an invoice or receipt for all expenses.

We will approve your expense within 14 days. We are a small team, so please be patient!

After your claim is approved, it will be assessed by our fiscal sponsor. Their team will process the claim on their next working day (Monday, Wednesday, or Friday).

If you have any questions or concerns about your expense claim, please reach out to the admins by email: info@forrt.org
