EDUCATION & SKILLS
Reforming Slovakia's education system to prepare citizens for 21st-century challenges through curriculum modernization, teacher development, and critical thinking skills. We combat disinformation, develop evidence-based policies for skills aligned with labor market needs, and champion innovation and entrepreneurship in high-value sectors — empowering Slovakia to seize the transformative opportunities of this millennium.
PUBLIC FINANCE REFORM
Implementing fiscal reforms to stabilize public finances, reduce deficits, and create a favorable environment for investment and economic growth. We focus on evidence-based budget analysis, redefining public services for efficiency, and strategically allocating funds across state, regional, and municipal levels. By streamlining service delivery costs, reassessing spending priorities, and managing budget chapters with fiscal discipline, we work to enhance Slovakia's economic competitiveness while preventing the fiscal crises that have challenged nations like Greece or France.
DECENTRALIZATION & PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION
Strengthening democratic governance through administrative reform, decentralization, and empowering local communities. We promote efficient public service delivery, transparent decision-making processes, and balanced regional development to reduce disparities and foster local innovation.
ADDITIONAL AREAS
(Monitoring & Commentary)
International Relations & Security - EU/NATO alignment, Ukraine support, hybrid threats

Note: These areas currently operate in "watchlist mode" - we monitor developments and provide expert commentary on significant issues, but do not maintain regular programmatic activity.
