About the Centre

A legacy that lives on

Since 1989 the Masaryk Democratic Movement (MDH) has carried out cultural, educational and civic work in the spirit of T. G. Masaryk's ideas. The Masaryk International Cultural and Educational Centre (MICEC) now builds on that near-four-decade tradition and develops it in a contemporary international format.
