1. A total amount of 200,000 CZK has been allocated to all projects for this call to proposal.

2. We expect that one to two projects will be selected. One project can request a maximum of 150 thousand CZK.

3. Eligible costs are personnel costs, direct costs (in particular consumables) and services. Funds may be requested for the following items:

   a.	material - consumables (small items such as office supplies should be listed, with monetary amounts given in thousands CZK including VAT); there is no limit for this budget item (except for the total amount, see point 2).
   b.	Invoices for materials or services - indicate the price including VAT; there is no limit for this budget item (except for the total amount, see point 2).
   c.	travel costs; there is no limit for this budget item (except for the total amount, see point 2).
   d.	scholarships for students of the University; the limit for this budget line is set at a maximum of 75 % of the total amount of the grant.
   e.	remuneration in the form of a Work Performance Agreement (WPA) for internal or external team members - the limit is set at a maximum of 50 % of the total amount of the grant (specifically a maximum of 10,000 CZK per month and the monthly total of all DPP's within the whole CU must not be exceeded).

4. The grant cannot finance property/material intended for so-called registration (in general, it can be said that, for example, consumables or various components up to the value of 1,000 CZK are not subject to registration).

5. The grant cannot be used to finance assets/materials intended for inventory (in general, e.g. consumables or various components up to the value of CZK 1,000 are not subject to inventory).

6. The allocated funds do not have to be used in full, but it is necessary to state to the nearest crown by 30 November 2025 what amount will not be used and will therefore be returned.

1. .Applications will be assessed by a grant committee consisting of representatives of the Department of Public Affairs of the CU, the CU Communications and PR Committee (KaPR), the CU Academic Senate´s Committee for the Third Role, or other relevant experts.

2. The basic evaluation criterion is the overall concept of the assigned topic - the meaningfulness, creativity and originality of the elaboration. However, the committee will also assess the meaningfulness of the project and the planned expenditure.

3. The secondary criterion is the quality of the application.

4. The main theme is the production of short promotional videos that individually introduce the faculties of the CU (ideally all 17 faculties)

5. The bonus criteria when evaluating projects are:

   • An important bonus criterion is the maximum number of videos to be produced (ideally the full 17 videos are expected to be produced / i.e. each faculty of the CU would have its own video)

   • and/or inter-faculty cooperation on the submitted project (the team may consist of representatives/students of multiple faculties/institutes of Charles University),

   • and/or implementation of the project at the Didaktikon university educational centre.

   Bonus criteria are optional and non-mandatory, and may also be included in the project individually, but may be taken into account by the committee when evaluating projects.

6. The committee reserves the right to not allocate funds if it does not consider the project proposals to be of sufficient quality.

7. The committee reserves the right to amend or modify the project (or part of it) in agreement with the promoters.

8. If the committee deems a project worthy of realization but with excessive financial requirements, it will discuss with the applicants the reduction of the budget; the project will only be supported with a grant if there is a mutual consensus.

9. In the event that the committee deems a project to be promising but lacks certain information in the application, the committee will lead a discussion with the applicants to clarify the information or refine the application. At the same time, incomplete information, failure to provide or clarify information may be considered as a reason for rejection or non-funding of the project.

10. In the event of a large number of applications, the committee reserves the right to organise a public presentation where the selected teams will defend their project proposal (approximately 10-15 minutes per team).

1. After the awarding of grants, an information meeting with student teams will be convened (end of June 2025).

2. Finance:

   a.	funds will be paid through the secretariat of the Public Affairs and Communiations Department of the CU Rectorate; contact: uka@cuni.cz,
   b.	all orders and invoices must be consulted with the contact persons well in advance,
   c.	in the case of scholarships, a one-month delay in payment should be expected (e.g. an application from the beginning of October may mean that the student will receive the funds in the account in about mid-December),
   d.	in the case of invoices, please use the following billing information: Karlova Univerzita; Ovocný trh 560/5, 116 36 Praha 1, ID no.: 00216208; Tax ID no.: CZ00216208; this is a strict condition, as otherwise invoices will not be paid,
   e.	in reasonable cases, agreement on a minor change in the budget structure will be possible,
   f.	detailed rules for the placing of orders, payment of invoices, etc. will be presented to the teams at the beginning of the project.
