The Prague City Council has approved the Programme of Support for the Activities of National Minorities and Integration of Foreigners in the Capital City for 2025.
A total of CZK 28 million will be allocated to the program, with applications open to non-profit organisations and municipal districts from September 30 to October 14 this year.
This new program aims to support activities related to national minorities from late September to mid-October. Non-profit organisations and city districts can apply to implement projects that help preserve cultural traditions and languages of national minorities.
These projects also aim to raise awareness among the general public by showcasing minority cultures. Many initiatives focus on educational activities for children, young people, and adults.
These include cultural events like concerts, exhibitions, theatre performances, festivals, lectures, conferences, seminars, and round table discussions.
Deputy Mayor Jiřà PospÃÅ¡il expressed his enthusiasm for the program, stating, “I am glad that Prague will continue to support national minorities and the integration of foreigners living in our city. We have allocated 28 million crowns for these activities for 2025. We have also unified the programs to support these areas, which will simplify their administration and increase their efficiency. The program includes cultural, social, and educational activities that help to preserve the cultural traditions of minorities and support the integration of foreigners, including Ukrainian refugees.”
The program consists of several measures:
Measure I: Presenting national cultures in Prague.
Measure II: Creating publications and audio/video recordings about the relationship of national minorities to Prague.
Measure III: Ongoing activities showcasing the culture of national minorities in Prague.
Measure IV: Supporting the integration of foreigners in Prague.
Measure V: Publications and audio/video recordings related to the integration of foreigners in Prague.
Measure VI: Supporting activities of foreign organisations and initiatives that promote civic engagement and integration of foreigners.
Applications for funding can be submitted from September 30 to October 14, 2024. Detailed information will be available on the official Prague website, praha.eu
