<strong>MCC</strong> also complements its educational activity with a network of institutions which provide a variety<br />

of services such as publishing books, planning international conferences, conducting research, and<br />

organizing unique domestic and international scholarship programs. These activities have contributed<br />

to making the Collegium an internationally recognized research center.<br />

Our paramount objective is to bestow upon Hungary a cohort of exceptional young individuals who<br />

possess familiarity with global dynamics and exhibit a sense of responsibility towards their personal<br />

destiny and the collective future of Hungary and all Hungarians. <strong>MCC</strong>, as a private educational foundation,<br />

is neither a competitor nor an alternative to public and higher education. Instead, it offers<br />

various programs and activities that complement the regular curriculum of Hungarian universities and<br />

schools while providing additional learning opportunities. Our students are not admitted purely on<br />

educational merits but on their desire and willingness to help their local communities, fellow Hungarians,<br />

and develop their talents for the benefit of themselves and Hungary.<br />

While <strong>MCC</strong> is ideologically independent, we are not value neutral. The environment that is fostered<br />

at <strong>MCC</strong> is one which encourages patriotism, respect for tradition, a realistic approach to global affairs,<br />

and care for the Hungarian nation and the future of the Western world.<br />

”There are moments in life that leave an indelible mark. Working with <strong>MCC</strong> is a series of such moments.<br />

Since my first visit to Hungary and to <strong>MCC</strong>, I have grown increasingly fond of this institution,<br />

which trains dedicated young people who have the potential to become the leaders of the Hungary of the<br />

future, both in the private and public sectors. The role played by <strong>MCC</strong> is one that is absent in many other<br />

countries. Although, since 2014, I have radically reduced my teaching commitments, I have kept my<br />

collaboration with <strong>MCC</strong> to support their mission. In a world where we are lurching from one crisis to<br />

another, and where strong leadership is, sadly, lacking, <strong>MCC</strong> and similar institutions embody the hope<br />

of a better world.”<br />
