The Team – Guter Rat (Good Council) - Citizens' Council for Wealth Distribution

And many debates that we have initiated with Guter Rat (Good Council): What do we do with unequally distributed wealth? How do we change the structures of our distribution system?

The Council

The Initiator

Marlene Engelhorn
Marlene Engelhorn (31) lives and works in Vienna. Since spring 2021, she has been active in the public sphere on the issues of tax and distributional justice. In June 2021, she founded taxmenow with other wealthy people to campaign for tax justice in the D-A-CH region. In fall 2022, her book "Geld" was published by Kremayr&Scheriau. The idea of using a citizens' council for the redistribution of their wealth so that it happens democratically developed along with the public relations work. This became, step by step and as a team: the Good Council.

The Good Council is independent of political parties and interest groups. It was privately financed by Marlene Engelhorn. Just like the work of the people who make the Good Council possible.

The experts

The Good Council had a pool of experts from research and practice at its disposal. They shared their expertise with the Council either as speakers or, if required, in an advisory capacity. We make all data, facts and content publicly available. The presentations are recorded and made available as videos. The experts come from a wide variety of fields and disciplines. These include political and social sciences, economics, philosophy and philanthropy.
