TA ČR ÉTA — Social Innovation
Funds TA ČR ÉTA Social Innovation to support Czech policy and public service research in governance.
TA ČR ÉTA Social Innovation sits under the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic and backs applied research that links the humanities and social sciences to policy, governance, and public services. The programme is built for projects that turn social-science insight into practical use, which gives it a different profile from TA ČR's more technology-led lines. Awards run from CZK 22,000 to CZK 220,000, the cycle is annual, and the eligible geography is the Czech Republic. For-profit applicants are required, nonprofits are allowed, individuals are excluded, and consortia are required, so the scheme expects organised partnerships rather than single applicants. The best proposals are likely to show a policy or service problem that can be addressed through research and then translated into implementation. ÉTA is strongest for teams that can connect methodology, institutional partners, and public-value outcomes in one coherent workplan, especially where the final use case sits in government, administration, or civic service delivery.
