EU Council decision blocking 21 Hungarian universities
The Centre for Social Sciences is not operated as a public interest fund and is not affected by the EU Council rule of law conditionality decision linked to Erasmus and Horizon Europe funding. We are able to participate in proposals and receive funding in both of these EU funding programmes without any restrictions.

Four proposals submitted by researchers of the Centre for Social Sciences have recently received funding from the EU.
