Borbála Takács, a doctoral student at the ELTE PPK Doctoral School of Psychology and alumna of ELTE PPK Institute of Intercultural Psychology and Education, Social Integration Studies MA, received the Dr. Mónika Szabó Award on 25 March 2024. Congratulations on the award!
Bori's work is closely linked to the intellectual legacy of Dr. Mónika Szabó. After completing her MA degree, as a continuation of her experimental research, she and her colleagues founded the Kacsakő Association (https://kacsakoegyesulet.hu/). The association's main goal is to create a safe and inclusive environment for children coming from different social "bubbles" to meet and learn from and about each other. Bori's main research topic is related to this programme as well: she is investigating how sport and experiential education can contribute to prejudice reduction on the field.
