Two names resonated throughout the celebrations marking Masaryk University’s 107th anniversary this year – painter Míla Doleželová, deeply connected to the Vysočina region, and playwright, dissident and the first democratic president after the Velvet Revolution, Václav Havel.
The year 2026 will be rich in events and exciting activities at Masaryk University for students, academics, and the general public alike. As early as Tuesday, 27 January, we will celebrate the 107th anniversary of the founding of the university, symbolically marking the beginning of another inspiring year.
As the new year begins, we look back at the past year of science and projects at ECON MUNI.
The ROBUST project, in which Masaryk University's Faculty of Economics and Administration is involved, organised a workshop in Brno in September where researchers from ECON MUNI presented the results of their research on the coordination of public institutions. The focus of the meeting was how to strengthen the preparedness of the state and local governments for crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and why cooperation at the local level is key to effective and robust governance.
Education, research, and addressing current social issues are the main tasks of Masaryk University. Some of the successes and milestones of 2025 are highlighted in the following overview.
ECON MUNI hosted a two-day AIR Academy for primary and secondary school students in November. Under the guidance of chief organiser Zdeněk Šerý, they visited leading scientific facilities, assembled their own pollution measurement sensors and gained practical skills that can be used in everyday life. The programme was created as a university project, connecting experts with the younger generation.
Before the Christmas break, ECON MUNI students and staff came together to celebrate kindness, community, and giving at the traditional pre-Christmas charity buffet. Every purchased refreshment helped support the Nojmánek Home for People with Disabilities, while enjoying Czech Christmas traditions and festive atmosphere.
