The programme was launched with the participation of state secretary at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Zsolt Németh and director of Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary Francesca von Habsburg.
Von Habsburg noted hat her father, Hans Heinrich von Thyssen-Bornemisza, had fostered close ties with Hungary as an art collector.
