Hungary provides humanitarian aid to Armenia through the Hungary Helps – Magyarország segít program
In recent days, I have been discussing constantly with the representatives of the Armenian Apostolic Church about the situation in the area. Following the negotiations and at the request of the church, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Affairs through the Hungary Helps Program donated HUF 
million to the Armenian Red Cross to support their humanitarian programs. From the subsidy, the organization provides assistance to Armenian people, who are relocating from the Karabah region to Armenia due to the conflict that has been going on there for three decades.
As a result of the armed escalation of the recent weeks, and then a deadly industrial disaster in Stepanakert, tens of thousands of Armenian nationalities have left their homes and settled in Armenia, where their care is very challenging. The aim of the Hungarian aid is to contribute to the stability of the area by helping the civilian victims of the conflict and the fuel depot explosion. The position of Hungary and the Hungarian government regarding the Karabakh conflict is clear and clear: peace is the only sustainable solution in the region. The Hungary Helps Program has been involved in the support of several Armenian communities in recent years. In Armenia, we supported church humanitarian programs, and in the Middle East, we helped Armenian Christian communities affected by the Syrian and Iraq wars and the economic crisis in Lebanon. These grants contributed to the restarting of Hungary and Armenia’s diplomatic relations in 2022.
Hungary is helping. With a sound mind and a clear heart.

Summary Exhibition
On August 23, 2024, the Armenian Cultural Center of Hungary hosted the opening of the summary exhibition. The exhibition was dedicated to the “Parajanov 100” collage project created during the “Armenian Youth Camp 2024” in Hungary and to the works produced during the sculpture courses that lasted for more than five months at the cultural center.
During the camp, a master class on collage-making was held, where participants worked in groups. The workshop presented the activities of the renowned Armenian filmmaker, screenwriter, and artist Sergey Parajanov, as well as his collages. This year marks the 100th anniversary of his birth.
The exhibition also had an interactive component, during which another collage was created and added alongside the presented works.
The pottery class was conducted by Grigor Murdian. The camp programs were led by Grigor Murdian and Suzanna Hakobyan. The projects were carried out at the Armenian Cultural Foundation of Hungary as part of the ESC volunteer program activities.

Armenian project “In the Armenian Youth Camp”
The Armenian Youth Camp is initially designed to encourage Armenian and Armenian-origin children and teenagers living in Hungary to meet and get to know each other. The camp’s goals include not only establishing connections among Armenians but also connecting them with their Armenian heritage.
Alex Avanesyan briefly touched on Armenian history, presenting the formation process of Armenian kingdoms, the importance of the adoption of Christianity, and other significant historical events. His speech sparked interest in the Armenian past among the camp participants.
The quiz organized by the “Urartu” theater of the Armenian Cultural Foundation of Hungary further connected the children with Armenian culture. Participants had to name or guess the names, origins, and histories of various items related to Armenian culture created in different periods shown in pictures. The project turned into an educational and entertaining game.
The workshop dedicated to the 100th anniversary of Sergey Parajanov’s birth, conducted by the volunteers of the “Armenian Cultural Foundation of Hungary,” Suzanna Hakobyan and Grigor Moradyan, sparked great interest. The workshop focused on collage art, presenting Parajanov’s works and the uniqueness of his art. It became a unique opportunity for the children to engage in creative exploration and to get acquainted with Parajanov’s worldview.
