The event is part of the PTE650 Jubilee celebration of the University of Pécs.
The African Hungarian Union is a non-governmental, non-profit organization that organises international aid and development, founded with the aim to aid the countries of Africa. The organization’s mission is to facilitate development through a.) the active participation of the concerned countries and b.) the utilization of their own resources – thus resulting in long term sustainable change.
This panel will demonstrate face paint and hair braids, as well as facilitate events such as African trivia and African games. Participants will also have the opportunity to apply as volunteers.
