Turning waste into a secondary raw material

Sustainability is now an essential part of everyday life. It shapes how companies develop their products and influences the choices consumers make.

The birth of the Hungaro Copter could open a new era in flying

“From high above, this land is but a map,” wrote the Hungarian poet Miklós Radnóti. But for those who live and work here, flying is not about looking down on an unfamiliar landscape. It is about seeing new possibilities from a new perspective. This idea also inspired the Hungaro Copter: a Hungarian-developed helicopter born from a passion for aviation and years of determined engineering work. At a time when environmental concerns are more urgent than

When you drizzle sauce onto a plate or add a few drops of flavored oil to a soup, it’s not just decoration. It’s a way of showing care—of telling the guest that their meal matters. And while this approach is often associated with trendy downtown restaurants, it can just as well define a rural, student-run kitchen serving daily menus. That’s exactly what happens at the Miskolc Gasztro Centrum. For a long time, hospitality training struggled

Where puppets come to life

The world of art is rarely a glamorous industry. More often, it is patient, loving work whose true value is measured in the moments shared with an audience. The story of MárkusZínház in Pécs is very much like that. For decades, the company has remained committed to the belief that stories, puppets, and theatre are about far more than entertainment.

When curiosity shapes the future – A social cooperative building a social enterprise with children

What if children grew up seeing it as natural to ask questions, observe, and experiment—and in doing so also learned where food comes from, why nature matters, and how the world around them works? A Hungarian social cooperative built its EU-funded program on exactly this idea. At the heart of the “Curious Fruit” project, launched by the Bugyulófalva Skills Development Center Social Cooperative, was an already existing interactive science program designed for children aged 5–12:

Is it really waste? – a new composting technology developed in Hungary
