The Embassy of the Republic of Slovenia Budapest was opened in 1992 as an official representative body of the Slovene Government in Hungary. As independent states the two countries officially established diplomatic relations in 1992. The embassy provides consular assistance and promotes bilateral political, economic, and cultural relations.


Cultural cooperation

The two neighbouring countries have extensive cultural cooperation also due to the needs of Slovene and Hungarian minorities living in each respective country.

The legal basis for bilateral cooperation has been the Program of cooperation in education, science and culture between the Government of the Republic of Slovenia and the Government of Hungary for the years 2016-2018, extended until the implementation of the program for the years 2020-2022.

In 2019, the Embassy of the Republic of Slovenia Budapest has organized, co-organised or participated in 34 projects in the field of public diplomacy and culture, some events have already become traditional. Regular cooperation has been established between Hungarian archives, museums, academies and universities or festivals, and Slovene institutions and municipalities, for instance the Lendava-Lendva Gallery and Museum. The embassy often cooperates with Hungarian partners, too.

Since November 2019, the Embassy has been a full member of the EUNIC Cluster Hungary, participating in the events organised by the network (cf. EUNIC Slovenia).


Film

Since 2016, the Slovenian Film Days took place in the Toldi Cinema in Budapest in October, curated and coorganised by Slovenian Film Center in cooperation with the Embassy. Some films were screened also in smaller cities as Szombathely.

CineFest Miskolc International Film Festival and the BuSho Short Film Festival in Budapest have regularly collaborated with Slovenian filmmakers for many years, too.

Primanima World Festival of First Animations has presented the authors around Stripburger and Animateka International Animated Film Festival.

Music

Every year, together with the Franz Liszt Academy from Budapest and the Academy of Music from Ljubljana, the embassy organises a concert in order to strengthen the ties between the two institutions. In 2014 the concert was performed by Trio Rêverie and Duo Furioso.

Theatre & dance

In 2013 the embassy helped to co-organise a reception for the guest appearance of Gregor Luštek's and Rosana Hribar's dance performance at MU Szinház in Budapest.


Archeology

A joint research of 23 institutions has resulted in the Virtual archaeological landscapes of the Danube region project funded by the Interreg V-B Danube Transnational Programme. It is led by the Universalmuseum Joanneum (AT), among partners are also the National Museum of Slovenia and the Institute for the Protection of Cultural Heritage of Slovenia.

Slovenian language

The Slovene minority, consisting of about 3,000 individuals mostly living in the Raba region in Hungary, enjoys a limited level of bilingual acknowledgement. In addition, Slovenian language is being taught at Loránd Eötvös University (ELTE) in Budapest and at University of Szombathely. There are also several Slovene cultural organisations based in Budapest and in the Raba region.

The Embassy regularly cooperates with the lectureships, supporting lectures by academicians or authors from Slovenia. On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the University of Ljubljana in December 2019, Professor Dr. Peter Vodopivec, a Slovene historian was hosted at the ELTE University in Budapest.
