The reasons for creating such an expert group and particular recommendations to the institutions are formulated in the document "Účast ČR v soutěžích o granty Evropské výzkumné rady (ERC): Strategická doporučení pro podporu žadatelů o granty ERC na institucionální a národní úrovni" written by Z. Čapková, P. Fedorová and Z. Strakoš on 13 May 2020, to be downloaded HERE.

The joint work of the Expert Group and the TC Prague must be complemented by the institutional support. Potential host institutions are supposed to take the responsibility for providing the information and offering at least basic preparation of the applicants.
