Zsófia Koncz, the state secretary of the culture and innovation ministry, briefed the 69th UN Commission on the Status of Women on Hungary's family policy in New York on Tuesday.
After the meeting, Koncz told MTI that she held meetings with the cabinet members responsible for family and women's issues in Serbia, Morocco, Turkiye, Qatar, the Philippines, and Chad. She briefed them on Hungarian family policy measures, including the PIT exemption for mothers, family tax reductions and measures to widen women's employment, she said.
Among measures to protect women's mental health, Koncz highlighted Hungary's unique 110-year-old travelling nurse network.
At the talks, Koncz said Hungary's family policy was based on three fundamental aims, improving families' financial situation, home creation and creating a stable work-life balance.
She said the Hungarian family policy enjoyed widespread appreciation, and "the results of the talks will materialise in widening cooperation".
On Wednesday, Koncz will visit Washington, DC, where she will conduct talks on the family policy of the Trump administration.
