In her welcoming speech at the event, Tünde Fűrész, president of KINCS, emphasized that KINCS, as a family research institute, takes a comprehensive approach to the study of families, in line with the provisions of the Fundamental Law and our law on the protection of families. It is therefore of great importance that our Institute is able to expand its relations in this spirit with a scientific community that seeks to connect the academic world and political decision-making and supports, rather than attacking the national policy that focuses on families.
