Polish-Czech Forum
Polish-Czech Forum / Czech-Polish Forum (Polish: ''Forum Polsko-Czeskie / Czesko-Polskie Forum''; Czech: ''Polsko-české forum / Česko-polské forum'') – a bilateral instrument of public diplomacy, established in 2009 for strengthening co-operation between Poland and the Czech Republic. It was created on the basis of a memorandum signed in 2008 in Prague by foreign ministers Radoslaw Sikorski and Karel Schwarzenberg.〔(Memorandum of Understanding (Prague, November 14, 2008) )〕 They pledged to spend 100,000 euros (each) annually to support non-governmental initiatives in Polish-Czech relations. In 2009 the councils of the forum were established and the first grants was awarded. In May 2010 the work of the forum was extended for an indefinite period.〔(Memorandum on Co-operation between the Czech MFA and the Polish MFA (Bydgoszcz, May 21, 2010) )〕
Every year, the Polish Foreign Minister announces a grant competition in which non-governmental organizations, associations, foundations, universities, research institutes and non-profit organizations in collaboration with partner institutions from the Czech Republic can apply for funding initiatives and projects designed to stimulate the further development and strengthening of the Polish-Czech relations.〔(Polish MFA: Grant competition 2014 (in Polish) )〕 The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic announces an equivalent grant competition.〔(Czech MFA: Grant competition 2014 (in Czech) )〕
In Poland, the council of forum, appointed by the foreign minister for a 2-year term, gives its opinions on applications. The first chairman of the Polish council was Eugeniusz Smolar. On November 2013 he was succeeded by Mateusz Gniazdowski. In parallel, in the Czech Republic operates the Council of the Czech-Polish Forum, appointed by the Czech Minister of Foreign Affairs. Professor Josef Jařab has been the chairman of the Czech council since 2009. Both councils meet once a year at a joint meeting.
The Forum continues the tradition of cooperation between independent dissident groups in non-democratic times before the changeover of 1989, which culminated in the activities of the Polish-Czech-Slovak Solidarity movement.〔(Czech MFA: Czech-Polish Forum )〕
