International

The latest station of our Intercultural Meetings Roadshow took place in Corvin Mátyás Grammar School in Budapest. It was the second time to visit the school and to give our international university students the opportunity to introduce their countries, their traditions and to share ideas about the importance of opening towards other cultures. Our university students gave very colourful presentations and after the presentations the grammar school students could ask questions about anything they were interested in.

Within the framework of the ‘Intercultural Meetings Roadshow’, we visited Damjanich János Primary School in Gödöllő where our university students from Egypt, Albania, Syria, Bhutan, Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq and Cambodia gave presentations about their countries and traditions. Our aim was to emphasize the importance of English language and also to focus on the issue of cultural sensitivity. Cultural sensitivity refers to being aware that cultural differences and similarities between people exist without assigning them a value.

On 10^th October the hugely popular International Dinner was organized at Szent István University with the participation of  22 countries.

On 30th September Prof. Daniel F. Meyer and Mrs. Natanya Meyer from the North-West University (NWU) in South-Africa gave their presentations.

We are happy to invite you to participate and/or give a presentation at the international student workshop.

The programme   will be held on 6^th November, 2019 from 10.00 to 13.00 at the Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences within the framework of the „Month of Hungarian Science” programme series.
