Hungary
The situation in Hungary
Children in Southeast Europe and the Balkans are particularly vulnerable as the fragile social and political context is put under even more strain by the refugee crisis. The numbers of children on the move, as well as unaccompanied and exploited children, have increased tremendously and social welfare professionals in the region often lack the qualifications and resources to cope with these challenges.
What we do
Migration
Child protection
Exploitation
Juvenile justice
"Our advocacy strategy is based on close collaboration with a large number of national and European partners, but also and above all by giving a voice to the most vulnerable children and their families, whose interests are under-represented."
Pierre Cazenave, Tdh Regional Advisor for Child Rights
