Work with us

We provide the following services:

  • Fiscal sponsorship (managing payments, accounting and overall finances)

  • Administrative and operations support (booking travel, accommodation, reimbursements, applications, visas)

  • Events organization and support (conferences, retreats, workshops)

  • Ad hoc operations support

We currently don’t have institutional funding and rely on project funding and overhead fees from other projects. This is not ideal and we are looking for a funder to support our efforts longterm. If you would like to support us, please contact us at hello@epistea.org.
