iROZHLAS: Suspension of the Erasmus programme for Hungary? "Punishment and isolation of students."

January 17, 2023

Hungarian students from 21 universities are at risk of not being able to participate in the Erasmus+ education programme. The European Commission has temporarily cut them off. "The students who stand to lose the most from Erasmus are not the children of upper-middle-class parents, but those from smaller towns and rural areas. They don't have the means to travel abroad," Hungarist Oszkár Roginer, Global EU project manager at the EUROPEUM Institute, criticised the decision to iROZHLAS.cz.

Nemají prostředky na to, aby mohli vycestovat do zahraničí,“ kritizuje rozhodnutí pro iROZHLAS.cz hungarista Oszkár Roginer, projektový manažer Global EU z Institutu EUROPEUM.
