The Swiss Contribution Programmes in Hungary Concluded a Successful Year
The National Coordination Unit organizes the Annual Meeting each year with the participation of the Swiss Confederation. During this meeting, the Annual Report is reviewed, discussed, and formally approved. This year’s meeting was held on 9 June 2026, during which the Swiss side reviewed the progress of the programmes and approved the report summarizing the results achieved in 2025.
At the meeting, participants reviewed the achievements of the Swiss Contribution to date and discussed the current status of programme implementation. In addition to strengthening the Hungarian–Swiss partnership, the Fund supports developments across a wide range of areas, including disadvantaged regions, economic growth, innovation, healthcare, and environmental protection.
More than HUF 26 billion from the grants were committed throw open-calls.
The year 2025 also proved highly successful from the perspective of the grant programmes, with 13 calls for proposals successfully concluded.
Project Visits to Showcase Ongoing Developments
The Annual Meeting provided an opportunity not only to review strategic and financial matters, but also to gain first-hand insight into the projects being implemented. The professional programme, held between 9 and 11 June, was attended by a five-member Swiss delegation representing the Swiss federal authorities responsible for the Swiss Contribution, the Ambassador of the Swiss Confederation to Hungary, and staff members of the Swiss Contribution Office.
