Transcarpathian Public Leadership Program<br />

Launched in 2018, the Transcarpathian Public Leadership Program is aimed at exceptionally talented<br />

Transcarpathian Hungarians between the ages of 18 and 36 who feel a responsibility for their local community<br />

in Transcarpathia and would like to positively shape the future of the Hungarians in Ukraine.<br />

Among many other places, participants attend training sessions in Budapest, Debrecen, and Brussels,<br />

and travel through various study trips. During the program’s training weekends, students gain insight<br />

into the functioning of public administration institutions, the different processes of community<br />

building and political management, and develop their leadership skills.<br />

Between each training weekend, students utilize e-learning materials and test themselves with small<br />

group projects addressing public, political, economic, or social chall<strong>eng</strong>es.<br />

The Transcarpathian Public Leadership Program is organized in partnership with the Transcarpathian<br />

Hungarian Cultural Association (THCA), the THCA Youth Organization, and MEP Andrea Bocskor.<br />

Andrea Bocskor, Member of the European Parliament<br />
