🇫🇷🇭🇺 A Magyarországi Francia Nagykövetség ismét támogatja a @Transparency_HU „Mentor-Mentee” programját, összhangban Franciaország szilárd elhivatottságával a szabad, független, pluralista és megbízható tájékoztatás mellett, amely a demokrácia életképességének sarokköve. 🤝 Egy olyan világban, ahol a dezinformáció egyre nagyobb teret nyer, és ahol az újságírói szakma szabadsága túl gyakran kerül veszélybe, elengedhetetlen az újságírók egy új generációjának képzése. 👏 Büszkék vagyunk arra, hogy a Francia Intézetben megrendezett „Dezinformáció elleni hetek” után most az új mentoráltakat támogathatjuk, akik egy az igazság és az igazságosság mellett elkötelezett közösség tagjaivá válnak. Alig várjuk, hogy elolvashassuk riportjaikat, olyan mentorok irányítása alatt, akik átadják nekik oknyomozói újságírói tapasztalataikat! @FinEmbBudapest @NorwayinHungary @ukinhungary @24ponthu @MagyarHang

“As a non-governmental organization fighting corruption, the success of our investigative, analytical and legal work, and perhaps even our mere existence threatens the regime of PM Viktor Orbán, who has been leading the most corrupt government in the European Union.” - @Transparency_HU.

🇭🇺 Gov fails to comply with over half of the #ruleoflaw conditions of accessing EU funds; RRF super milestones & conditionality measures are yet to be fulfilled. We show with fellow local anti-corruption and human rights watchdogs what's missing: helsinki.hu/en/the-hungarian…

In #Hungary, university students helped @Transparency_HU develop an unusual idea for a photography exhibition. Their “alternative tourist guidebook” contains photos of some of the worst examples of corruption & misused public funds in the country.
