The programme includes lectures, public discussions, film screenings, an exhibition and concerts focusing on Italian in everyday use.
One of the main events is a day-long meeting of Hungarian university professors, bilingual secondary school teachers and language editors next Thursday, who will discuss social life and language use in Hungary and Italy.
Similar programmes will be held under "The Italian Language Week" in 99 Italian cultural institutes around the world this month, the institute said.
