Hungary to offer scholarship programme to nearly 50 countries
Hungary as a committed member of the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) helps attain the goals of sustainable development by offering a scholarship programme to nearly 50 countries and financing joint projects, Minister of Agriculture István Nagy told Qu Dongyu, FAO Director-General, in Budapest, the ministry told MTI in a statement.
During his stay in Hungary from 25 to 27 November, the director-general held talks with the minister and visited FAO’s Regional Office for Europe and Central Asia and Shared Service Centre, which have been operating in Budapest for nearly 15 years.
Nagy assured Qu Dongyu that Hungary would continue to grant scholarships to youths from developing countries for their masters studies, and provide Hungarian experts for FAO projects.
They agreed that the Ukraine-Russia war waged in Hungary’s neighbourhood was a grave threat to global food supply. Qu Dongyu invited the minister to FAO’s Rome Headquarters to present Hungary’s experience in water management.
