Civil society organisations, charities, and NGOs in Hungary are working to build a fair society for the people of the country and for the world.

Civil society organisations, charities, and NGOs in Hungary are working to build a fair society for the people of the country and for the world.



The Hungarian government are trying to use the law to force many non-governmental organisations to stop their work or risk fines, bankruptcy and even shut down. They are proposing legislation which means that they can control and restrict the work and funding of NGOs working on anything related to migration; including human rights organisations and people that provide legal and social services.

Why is this happening?

Because the government wants to silence and crush anyone who dares to raise their voice and criticise the authorities. This is creating a culture of suspicion and fear that will affect every person in Hungary. We can't let this happen.

The NGOs at risk in Hungary need your support and solidarity.

A pro-government Weekly, Figyelő, has already published an article which lists board members and staff of NGOs such as Amnesty International Hungary, the Hungarian Helsinki Committe, Civil Liberties Union, Transparency International Hungary and many other civil organisation in an attempt to intimidate co-workers, members and supporters of NGOs.

Write a message now and tell these brave people and organisations that you support their crucial work in making Hungary a safe and fair place for all. We will make sure the authorities get the message too.

This is urgent. The Hungarian government are likely to enact the legislation very soon!
