New Year Message from our Executive Director

Dear supporters of the International Visegrad Fund, dear friends,

I hope that during the Christmas holidays you had the opportunity to pause, reflect, and take stock of the past year 2024.

For the International Visegrad Fund, the last 24 years have been a period of transformation, growth, and meaningful achievements. Here are a few highlights.
The Fund has supported nearly 10,000 projects, invested over 130 million euro, and built a network of more than three and a half organizations across over 600 cities. Our focus has expanded beyond the Visegrad region to include the Western Balkans and Eastern Partnership countries, with nearly 20 percent of our budget now dedicated to non-EU neighbors, particularly Ukraine. With the continued support of the V4 governments, we remain committed to contributing to a more connected, resilient, and collaborative Europe.

As we look ahead to the coming year, we are excited to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the International Visegrad Fund. I wish you all a happy, healthy, and prosperous new year in 2025.
