We are proud to announce that aHang\u2019s partners – the \u201cMake a Move So They Can Make a Move\u201d Public Association and the M\u00e1t\u00e9szalkaLeaks group – have both won the most prestigious professional prize, the Civil Society Award!<\/p>\n
M\u00e1t\u00e9szalkaleaks\u2019s Snail vs Train<\/strong><\/a> was selected as the best action of the past year, while the Campaign for Recognizing Home Nursing<\/strong><\/a> \u2013 which \u201cMake a Move So They Can Make a Move\u201d has run in cooperation with aHang and the CSEVE Group – won the prize Most Successful Advocacy Project of 2019. Both winning groups have been supported by the community organizing program of the Civil College Foundation, our partner organization.<\/p>\n Where Can You Rent a Snail Costume?<\/strong><\/p>\n We recall the excited conversations and correspondence that took place last summer about where to rent a snail costume and how to organize press for the venue without M\u00c1V, the Hungarian Railway Company, learning what we were planning. We had no doubt that M\u00e1t\u00e9szalkaLeaks\u2019s new action would be witty and effective, but we just could not stop admiring the final result. The advocacy group organized of local workers had been well-known in the region for their creativity, enthusiasm and commitment. However, with this action the group and the issue they represent – the renovation of the Debrecen-M\u00e1t\u00e9szalka railway line – has become well-known throughout the country and even abroad. We are proud and happy that an action associated with one of our campaigns has been so successful!<\/p>\n The action and its aftermath clearly indicate what means should be used to draw attention to civil society issues.<\/p>\n
