Nestátní

Nestátní is a Czech adjective meaning non-state or non-governmental. It is often used to describe organizations, institutions, or activities that are independent of state control or funding. For example, a nestátní organizace refers to a non-governmental organization (NGO). Similarly, nestátní školství would denote private or independent educational institutions, as opposed to state-run schools. The term emphasizes a separation from public administration and a reliance on private initiative, voluntary efforts, or other non-governmental sources. It signifies a sector that operates outside the direct purview of government bodies. This can encompass a wide range of entities, from charities and foundations to private businesses and independent media outlets. The core concept is the absence of direct state ownership or management.
