What we do
At MigAct, we believe everyone is an agent of change in Prague. Regardless of where you’re from or what language you speak, everyone deserves equal participation in addressing our city’s issues. We strive to build a bigger we – a Prague that is truly a Prague for all.
MigAct Meetups
Connect with locals, informal groups, and civic initiatives. Network, share know- how, and support each other.
Learning Hubs
Workshops, events and programs that support Prague residents with migration backgrounds acquire the skills and knowledge they need for civic participation. Ideal for those looking to become civically active, or those looking to level up their engagement.

Our Current Projects and Activities
City for All – Support for Civic Participation in an Intercultural Environment
Socially engaged individuals with migration backgrounds and civic initiatives led by migrants face many obstacles on their path to civic participation. These obstacles include language barriers, lack of information and contextual understanding, experiences of rejection, prejudice, or xenophobia and others. This project aims to mitigate some of these obstacles through awareness-raising and netwroking, counseling and strengthening civic competencies.
Project duration: 01.05.2024-31.12.2024

MigAct capacity building
This project is implemented in cooperation with AMIGA and EPIM – European Philanthropic Initiative for Migration.
Our focus in this project will be on continually refining the MigAct strategic plan through a series of participatory meetings involving the MigAct core team and MigAct community. These sessions will dive deep into MigAct’s vision, mission, and goals, fostering collaborative dialogue to develop our theory of change and optimize our strategic objectives. Regular participatory meetings with MigAct community will ensure broad stakeholder engagement and input. The activity will culminate in a public presentation of the strategic plan combined with a networking event, demonstrating MigAct’s commitment to transparency and community involvement.
Project duration: 01.06.2024-31.03.2025
Led by Eurocities, UNITES (UrbaN InTEgration Strategies through co-design) trains and accompanies local authorities to co-design integration strategies with other stakeholders and migrants.
MigAct has been a part of the UNITES project from its beginning. In collaboration with Prague City Hall, we strategically devised and executed a number of participatory workshops, each geared towards fostering stronger collaboration between Prague City Hall and residents with migration backgrounds.
International conference Empowering Civic Engagement in a Diverse Society, which took place on 21.09.2023 in Prague was co-financed within the UNITES project. It included a panel discussion – Engaging migrants in local communities and in co-designing integration strategies – perspectives of European partners in the UNITES project.
