The Czech Republic will get **EUR 184.5 million under the EEA & Norway Grants 2014 – 2021**, being one of the 15 Beneficiary States across the EU in this new funding cycle, to have signed the **Memorandum of Understanding **with the Donor States (Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein).

Out of the total budget, almost EUR 43 million will be dedicated to the private sector, via two major programmes:  **Research** (EUR 35.3 million) and **Education** (EUR 7.6 million).

Under the Research programme, the main programme areas are **Business Development, Innovation and SMEs**, which will aim to support increased value creation and sustainable growth**. **This programme will be managed by the **Ministry of Finance** in cooperation with **Research Council of Norway (NFR)**.

Under the Education programme, the main programme areas are **Scholarships, Apprenticeships and Youth Entrepreneurships** which will aim to support the enhancement of human capital as well as of knowledge base at all levels of education**. **This programme will be managed by the **Center for International Cooperation in Education** in cooperation with **The Norwegian Center for International Cooperation in Higher Education (SIU) and the National Agency for Internationl Education Affairs (AIBA).**

These programme areas open excellent opportunities for organizations in Donor State countries interested to partner on bilateral projects in the areas mentioned above, together with partners from Czech Republic.

**Further programme areas **of less direct relevance for the private sector are:

- • Environment and Ecosystems, Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation
- • Good Governance, Accountable Institutions, Transparency
- • Cultural Entrepreneurship, Cultural Heritage and Cultural Cooperation
- • Civil Society
- • European Public Health Challenges
- • Social Dialogues – Decent work
- • Human Rights, Roma Inclusion and Empowerment, Domestic and Gender-Based Violence
- • Correctional Services and Pre-trial Detention, Effectiveness and Efficiency of the Judicial System, Strengthening Rule of Law
- • International Police Cooperation and Combating Crime

The total **EEA & Norway Grants **budget allocated to the Czech Republic, including the funds for Bilateral Relationship and Technical Assistance, amounts to **EUR 195.9 million. **

**Status of the EEA & Norway Grants 2014 – 2021 across Europa – The Donor States have already signed MoUs with 6 countries (**[**Portugal**](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-more-than-eur-102-million-allocated-to-portugal/)**,** [**Estonia**](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-more-than-eur-68-million-allocated-to-estonia/)**,** [**Malta**](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-eur-8-5-million-allocated-to-malta/)**,** [**Slovakia**](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-more-than-eur113-million-allocated-to-slovakia/)**,** [**Bulgaria**](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-eur-210-million-allocated-bulgaria/) **and** [**Romania**](https://www.winnovart.com/eea-norway-grants-eur-502-5-million-allocated-romania/)**). Further agreements with the remaining Beneficiary States are in progress and soon to be announced.**
