The office's main activities include consultation & networking services and awareness-raising about inspiring Czech experts, projects and initiatives. For this purpose, CZELO yearly organizes or co-organizes more than 20 events, publishes articles on its website, sends out newsletters and provides up-to-date information on social media.

Education
