History
After electing minority self-governments in 1994, the electoral assembly of the German minority elected the political and cultural representative body of the Germans of Hungary, the National Self-Government of the Germans in Hungary, on 11 March 1995. According to the opportunities offered by the 2011. CLXXIX. Nationality Act, it wants to implement a modern minority policy.[2]
Aims
Its main aims are to preserve and support the language, the intellectual heritage, the historical traditions and the German identity in Hungary. That includes the preservation of the German mother tongue in cultural areas, the teaching of German language in the Hungarian school system and in the field of international relations and the exchange of German relations by partnerships and programs.[2]
The implementation of cultural autonomy, the takeover of the German institutions in Hungary, ensures the main activity of LdU.[2]
At the same time, it supports co-operation of Hungary and its neighbours, above all with German-speaking countries.[2]
It is the umbrella organization of 406 local minority self-governments and more than 500 cultural groups and other German associations of Hungary.[2]
