In 2013, we launched the second edition of the Open Competition to finance projects undertaken to promote dialogue and understanding in Polish-Russian relations.

Open competition 2013 numbers:

The Centre received 37 applications for a total sum of PLN 1 576 800. 17 requests fulfilled formal requirements and were submitted to a five-person Competition Commission for a consideration.
Members of the Competition Commission at their meeting on 29 April proposed, on the basis of merit, to finance 12 projects for a total amount of 217 586.72 PLN (individual applicants were awarded funding in the amount of 2 000 to 36 000 PLN).
Agreements were signed with 11 applicants totalling 203 586.72 PLN. One applicant resigned due to less funding than requested.
