Development Day
More than 3,000 visitors attended the festival Czech Development Day, held in September 2015 in Prague. I launched the event in the presence of the Foreign Minister and the Head of European Commission Office in Prague.

In 2015, I was a member of an international team that visited São Tomé and Príncipe as part of the OECD review of Portuguese development cooperation. It doesn’t look so, but it was a serious job.
I drafted the much needed and appreciated Act on Development Cooperation and Humanitarian Aid that was adopted by the Parliament of the Czech Republic in 2010.
I coordinated the Czech Presidency in the EU Council in the area of development cooperation. In January 2009, we organised an informal meeting of EU development ministers in Prague.
