In&nbsp;such moments, there are no&nbsp;words that&nbsp;can adequately express our sorrow, and&nbsp;we&nbsp;would like&nbsp;to&nbsp;express our deepest condolences to&nbsp;all the bereaved. This tragedy should never have happened, serving as&nbsp;a&nbsp;stark reminder of&nbsp;the importance of&nbsp;ensuring the safety of&nbsp;our university communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We express our support to&nbsp;the Faculty of&nbsp;Arts, Charles University, and&nbsp;all those affected by&nbsp;this incident. We&nbsp;also&nbsp;call upon&nbsp;all who wish to&nbsp;contribute to&nbsp;support the University&#8217;s&nbsp;Foundation aiding the families of&nbsp;victims and&nbsp;students in&nbsp;difficult times. As&nbsp;of&nbsp;today, the collection has raised more than&nbsp;732,000 EUR, a&nbsp;wonderful display of&nbsp;solidarity and&nbsp;compassion. If&nbsp;you are interested in&nbsp;contributing, you can find more information at&nbsp;the <a href=\"https:\/\/nf.cuni.cz\/NFNEN-14.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Endowment Fund of&nbsp;Charles University<\/a> website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through our parent company M2C, we&nbsp;have contributed an&nbsp;amount of&nbsp;4,070 EUR to&nbsp;the Endowment&nbsp;Fund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For our company, originally founded by&nbsp;enthusiastic students, yesterday&#8217;s&nbsp;tragedy is a&nbsp;particularly sensitive topic. We&nbsp;have long been collaborating with&nbsp;university students, organizing student internships, and&nbsp;have graduates among&nbsp;our ranks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There has been a&nbsp;persistent emphasis on&nbsp;the need for&nbsp;preventive security measures for&nbsp;educational institutions. Yesterday&#8217;s&nbsp;event starkly highlighted the current state of&nbsp;school security, which is at&nbsp;a&nbsp;dismal level, often undermined by&nbsp;the fact that&nbsp;the protection of&nbsp;buildings is frequently underestimated. Unfortunately, this is driven by&nbsp;the public procurement law, where the sole criterion is often cost rather than&nbsp;quality. Security is often provided&nbsp;by&nbsp;untrained or&nbsp;incompetent individuals and&nbsp;organizations that&nbsp;are unable to&nbsp;meet the necessary requirements or&nbsp;lack sufficient knowledge. Frequently, there is no&nbsp;security analysis, which is the foundation of&nbsp;the entire security system. Unfortunately, there is often no&nbsp;plan on&nbsp;how&nbsp;to&nbsp;respond to&nbsp;such an&nbsp;event, as&nbsp;occurred yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar tragedies can be to&nbsp;some extent prevented. Therefore, we&nbsp;believe that&nbsp;public administration should thoroughly reconsider the ways in&nbsp;which facilities are secured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, more than&nbsp;ever, we&nbsp;need to&nbsp;stand together and&nbsp;support each other. Thank you for&nbsp;your kindness and&nbsp;solidarity in&nbsp;this difficult time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With deep sadness and&nbsp;regret, we&nbsp;have been following the tragic event that&nbsp;occurred yesterday at&nbsp;the Faculty of&nbsp;Arts, Charles University, in&nbsp;Prague.
