Strategies AV21

The research programmes which are realised at the institutes of the Czech Academy of Sciences within the Strategies AV21, are based on the interdisciplinary cooperation and deal with actual problems and challenges. The main attention is paid to the application of the results in the spheres of important economical and social impact. At the same time, the Strategies AV21 fully observe the pivotal role of the fundamental research which is the basis for any development in all sciences. The research programmes are proposed and defined due to the arrangement of the CAS management with the directors of the institutes. Arranging the programmes various trends in the sciences, social relevance are taken into account with regard to the National Strategic Studies and Innovations.
