Without strong and continuous support, the 23 editions behind us - and the upcoming 24th - would not have been possible. A huge thank you to our long-standing partners and grantors, who help shape the Visegrad Summer School into the unique program it is today. Special recognition goes to the International Visegrad Fund, whose ongoing support remains the backbone of this initiative.
Václav Havel Library (Czech Republic) – A respected institution dedicated to democracy, human rights, and political dialogue. A valued partner since the 16th edition, bringing leading experts and supporting Czech participants year after year.
Bratislava Policy Institute (Slovakia) – A prominent think tank focused on strengthening Central and Eastern European societies. Involved in VSS since the 17th edition, BPI contributes its expertise and supports participant recruitment.
Cracovia Express Foundation (Hungary) – An important actor in fostering Hungarian-Polish cultural cooperation. A trusted partner since the very first edition, committed to cross-border dialogue and supporting Hungarian participants.
The City of Kraków – Our home city and a long-term supporter, helping us create a vibrant space for international dialogue in the heart of Kraków.
