Building Bridges '26 satellite events hosted by AE Budapest Hub

Three satellite events - AE Hubs Meeting, Presentation of AE Budapest Hub “From Knowledge to Action” projects, and AE Budapest Hub Symposium: Science-Driven Transformation of Educational Quality: From Systemic Inequality to Evidence-Based Practice - will be hosted by AE Budapest Hub connected to the Building Bridges 2026 - 37th Annual Conference of Academia Europaea on Monday, October 12, 2026 at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (MTA), Széchenyi István tér 9., 1051 Budapest.

The programme is scheduled to start at 12:30 pm (CET) with the meeting of the AE Hubs Directors and staff members, followed by a presentation by a representative of the Translational European-Asian Network (TEA-NET). The main aim of the meeting is to foster a discussion about potential cooperation and collaboration, and share common challenges and good practices.

After the Hubs' meeting there will be two parallel sessions between 15:00-17:00 pm. One of them is the Presentation of AE Budapest Hub “From Knowledge to Action” projects. Academia Europaea (AE) Budapest Hub, with the support of Academia Europaea, coordinates the "From Knowledge to Activity" initiative. The program aims to translate academic knowledge into real-world impact across Europe by supporting young researchers and fostering interdisciplinary collaboration. This program is designed to amplify the societal and policy impact of science across Europe through high-impact publications as a result of the projects. Each project will have the opportunity to be presented in a short, 10-15-minute presentation. Highlights of key initiatives and impact-driven projects will be showcased.

The third event of the day will be dedicated to the AE Budapest Hub Symposium: Science-Driven Transformation of Educational Quality: From Systemic Inequality to Evidence-Based Practice. This event will feature the MTA-SZTE Digital Learning Technologies Research Group which is supported by the Research Programme for Public Education Development of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences for four years.
