CDI Hungary was honoured to host our second Christian Democratic Leaders’ Roundtable in form of a breakfast discussing “The Atlantic Riddle:  US Political Divisions and Their Impact on the EU”, with a keynote Speech by Prof. Dr. Christiaan Alting von Geusau, President of the International Catholic Legislators’ Network and Co-Chair of the CDI Advisory Board at the Brussels office of the Foundation for a Civic Hungary.

The Christian Democratic Leader’s Roundtable is an initiative to bring together like-minded Christan politicians and alliances, as well as to enable informal ways of cooperation and joint initiatives.

The leading expert of CDI Hungary, Alejandro Pena Esclusa gave a lecture on the importance of Classical Arts to MCC students in Szeged, using the findings of his newest book “Classical Art and cultural Warfare”.

The CDI Hungary was honoured to co-host the Lady Ambassadors’ Charity Initiative  Introductory Evening with the Hungarian Association of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta.

The event included a presentation by the Hospitaller of the Order of Malta Dr. Lóránd G. Erőss and a presentation by László Moravcsik, project leader on behalf of Miklós Vecsei, Ministerial Commissioner for the Emerging Settlements Program and Vice-President of the Hungarian Maltese Charity Service.

The evening ended with a reception, in which the participants had the opportunity to exchange ideas and discuss possible ways of involvement in the work of the Hungarian Maltese Charity Service.

The highly successful book The Curse of Popularity published jointly by CDI Hungary and CFR, has been the subject of several book launches.

The book was edited by Dr. Bernadett Petri and Dr. Kristóf Heil, with essays from Hungarian, Slovenian, Venezuelan, Italian, and German contributors. The various chapters in the book explore the nature and history of the phenomenon that has come to be known as populism.

The two editors have presented the book in the name of CDI Hungary with outstanding success in Hungary and abroad. Dr. Bernadett Petri participated in a conference organised by the Institute of Justice in Warsaw, where she had the opportunity to present the book.

Dr. Kristóf Heil had the opportunity to present the book, which was published last April, at several panel discussions and events organised by RETÖRKI, Eötvös Lóránd University – Faculty of Law and Political Sciences, the Kossuth Klub, the GRUND Association, among others, which were received with great interest.
