How you can support us

Independent data journalism cannot be sustained by money alone. It is sustained by the people who read it, pass it on and tell us when they come across something that ought to come to light.

Follow the route down the page. Most stops are free and take a minute. Pick whatever suits you – even a single step helps.

Pass our articles on

Social-media algorithms favour shortcuts and emotions, not thorough work with data. Every share helps our stories reach the people we write them for.

  • local Facebook and WhatsApp groups, neighbourhood communities
  • colleagues at work, friends, parents at school
  • associations, libraries and schools that can pass them on

Tip us off about data and topics

Have you come across interesting data, an odd figure in your municipal budget, an official decision that makes no sense, or a topic nobody is talking about? Write to us. We check every tip against the sources and dig out the context.

Volunteers before elections

Help with the Voting Advice Application

Ahead of the 2026 municipal elections, we approached the parties standing in more than seventy towns and cities. But the Voting Advice Application (Volební kalkulačka) only works if the parties respond – and if people hear about it.

  • Nudge the candidates. Do you know someone on a party list, or can you track down a contact? Remind them that they have not filled in the questionnaire yet. And if they decline to take part, let us know.
  • Get the application out to people. Share it in local groups, communities and organisations in your town.

Use our data projects

Besides articles, we build tools that are publicly available. Use them, cite them and recommend them to others.

  • Sněmovna.DataTimes.cz – how Czech MPs vote, who rebels against their parliamentary group and who is absent
  • Mandáty.cz – the average of election polls, converted into seats
  • Volební kalkulačka (Voting Advice Application) – which party you agree with most at elections

Thank you for being with us.

Every step helps us bring data to light.
