Description

The International Visegrad Fund is giving small grants. The projects financed within Small Grant should fall within one of the following six categories:

  1. cul­tural cooperation;
  2. sci­en­tific exchange and research;
  3. edu­ca­tion;
  4. youth exchange;
  5. cross-border coop­er­a­tion;
  6. pro­mo­tion of tourism.

Grant

Maximum con­tri­bu­tion of the Fund for each Small Grant project is €6,000. The finan­cial con­tri­bu­tion of the Fund can­not exceed 70% of total project costs includ­ing the in-kind con­tri­bu­tion of the appli­cant, or in-kind con­tri­bu­tions of other sub­jects. The max­i­mum time frame of the pro­posed bud­get is 6 months (even if the projects are envis­aged to last longer). Annual bud­get is €600,000.

Eligibility

With the excep­tion of cross-border coop­er­a­tion, enti­ties from at least three Visegrad Group (V4) coun­tries (the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia) must be involved (e.g., a V4 orga­nizer and at least two V4 part­ners); it is advised, how­ever, to include part­ners from all V4 coun­tries. Any orga­ni­za­tion or nat­ural per­son in the world is eli­gi­ble for the fund­ing, however, mostly the recip­i­ents are non-governmental orga­ni­za­tions (NGOs), munic­i­pal­i­ties and schools or other pub­lic insti­tu­tions.
