Rekindling ties with compatriots affirmed their integral role in the Czech Republic, and establishing institutions and policies aimed at diaspora engagement became a key priority. This study seeks to identify the primary areas of concern for the Czech Republic regarding the diaspora and examines how these policies are interrelated. The analysis of engagement policies is based on political-administrative, economic and cultural criteria and is further categorised by the specific areas to which they are directed. The study outlines the principal institutional engagement policies in three key areas: education and culture policy, citizenship, and social support and healthcare policy. It highlights the need for a central institution to manage and facilitate relations between the Czech Republic and its diaspora. The concluding section refers to the requirements of Czechs abroad
