Analysis and evaluation of the 1st CfP showed very high absorption capacity of Czech NGO sector under the 1st CfP priorities. Nevertheless, the level of human rights protection, building-up the multi-cultural society, support of children with specific needs and environment protection in the Czech Republic could not yet achieve the desired level and democratic standards and so far there is still a room for their improvement.
For the 2nd CfP it was recommended continuation of same priorities from the 1st CfP, together with increase of the total allocation which should be distributed equally between priorities. Aiming to ensure sustainability of the project activities, some adjustment in the setting of the grant scheme suggested as well: an extension of the project duration and an adequate increase of the individual grant amount. This change was considered as a necessary condition for implementation of long-term projects which will make more tangible impact to the target groups. Sustainability of the expected results related to future activities should be also more visible, both on institutional as well as policy level.
On 17 December Civil Society Development Foundation launched the 2nd Call for Proposals in the Block Grant for NGOs – Life Improvement in Communities through NGO Activities and Services. The last 3rd Call for proposals of the Block Grant for NGOs was launched on 15 December 2008.
