Children's Rights Report in Hungary – Pilot – 2024

This report, titled "Children's Rights Report in Hungary – Pilot – 2024," was published under the care of the Association for Children's Rights and the Central European Academy of the University of Miskolc, prepared as a first pilot study examining the state of children's rights in Hungary during 2024. It combines a descriptive overview of legal and institutional developments with a survey-based assessment of practices across four faith-based child welfare providers — the Diocese of Hajdúdorog, the Diocese of Vác, the Piarist Order's Hungarian Province, and the Hungarian Baptist Aid. It draws on the framework of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, reviewing legislative changes, institutional practices, and social trends, and situates its analysis within a value-based perspective informed by the authors' own faith tradition, while also engaging with international and EU-level legal standards. As with any single-perspective assessment, readers may wish to consult it alongside other sources — including secular, governmental, and international children's rights bodies — to form a fully rounded picture of the topic.
