ABOUT THE LIBERTY BRIDGE PROGRAM
The goal of Hungary Foundation’s Liberty Bridge Program (launched in 2020) is to reinvigorate the US-Hungary relationship by building up a new framework of programs that will bolster the professional, academic, public, and people-to-people dialogue between the two countries.

As part of this program, HF will invest in scholars and fellows who have demonstrated leadership skills and will serve as future bridge-builders between the two countries.
