Description
1) Objective
The International Visegrad Fund is an international organisation based in Bratislava founded in 2000 by the governments of the Visegrad Group (V4) countries; the Czech Republic, Hungary, the Republic of Poland, and the Slovak Republic. The purpose of the Fund is to facilitate and promote the development of closer cooperation among citizens and institutions in the region as well as between the V4 region and other countries, especially in the Western Balkan and Eastern Partnership regions. Strategic Grants support project proposals addressing annual strategic priorities of the Visegrad Group. Entities from all four Visegrad Group (V4) countries must be actively involved in each proposed project.
Strategic Grants priorities are:
- V4@35: Generation Future
- Smart & Sustainable Cities in the V4 Region
- Facilitating research and development cooperation in the region
2) Eligibility
Any legal entity is eligible for funding if applying on behalf of a justifiable consortium of project partners. Preference is generally given to groups of non-governmental, civil society organizations (CSOs), public educational, cultural, research and scientific institutions, municipalities and local governments. As a rule, the project must be implemented by at least three organizations (including the applicant) from three different V4 countries.
3) Location
It is compulsory to secure participation of subjects from at least three different V4 countries (an organiser and at least two project partners); with the exception of Cross-Border Cooperation where cooperation of two countries is sufficient (organiser and a single project partner) and the Visegrad Strategic Program where all four V4 countries must be represented). Applicants are, however, strongly encouraged to involve project partners from all four Visegrad countries: Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Czech Republic.
4) Budget
Grants cover up to 100% of costs (incl. 15% overheads); typical size €35,000–€45,000.
5) Application
The deadline is 1 June 2026.
