The János Hunyadi Award is announced for the first time by the Fidesz - Hungarian Civil Alliance party foundation, the Civic Foundation for Hungary.
The purpose of the international award is to reward outstanding personalities who have done a lot for European freedom and independence, for cooperation between nations, and for the protection of the values that underpin European identity – the Greco-Roman cultural tradition and the Christian value system.
The aim of the founders is to present personalities and their work who bravely represent the sovereign aspirations of equal national communities and who are the defining figures of right-wing, conservative thinking.
