On the 22nd of April 2017, the SILA International Women’s Club Ljubljana held its annual charity gala. This year our Embassy was the honorary co-organiser of the event, named the Csárdás Ball.

The main sponsor of the evening, which celebrated Hungarian gastronomy and culture, was the Ministry of Agriculture of Hungary. Ambassador Edit Szilágyiné Bátorfi and Minister of State responsible for environmental affairs, agricultural development and Hungaricums Zsolt V. Németh held a welcome speech at the gala, which was attended by representatives of the Slovenian business and political elite. The ball was a great success and it proceeds were donated to Centre IRIS – Centre for Education, Rehabilitation, Inclusion and Counselling for the Blind and Partially Sighted.
