During our Vienna trip, we had the opportunity to visit the Haus der Geschichte Österreich a museum dedicated to Austrian history. A special feature of the museum is that it also presents events affecting minorities living in Austria, thus expressing the importance of inclusion. In addition, we had the privilege of being guided through the history of Austria's Roma minority by the chief curator of the museum, Stefan Benedik.

RGPP participants have had an eventful first month! Since their arrival in early September, they have completed their orientation week, were offered a menu of classes, chose their tutorial areas, and become familiar with the expectations of the program and life in Budapest. Some are also getting used to being back in classrooms. In addition to their academic activities, they have enjoyed fun social events.
