The primary mission of the Hungarian Cultural Institute in Brussels is to bring Hungarian culture into the mainstream of European culture. The institute operates in Brussels, in the “heart” of Europe, and thus the activities are focussed primarily on Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. The aim of the Institute is to bring Hungarian culture closer to the three main communities of the region (French, Dutch and German). At the same time, the Institute also intends to cater to the interests of those who work in the multi-cultural environment of the European institutions.
