Public perceptions


Most Hungarians (72.1%) believe that diversity enriches their national culture. Only 35.5% of those polled believe a foreigner is less likely than others to get a job, be accepted for training, or be promoted. Yet the majority believes ethnic discrimination is widespread, increasing and inadequately addressed. Accordingly, a large majority support positive action based on ethnicity. A majority did not know about laws punishing ethnic discrimination in the labour market. The majority of Hungarians support migrants' rights to family reunion, but support for similar social rights for migrants is exceptionally low in Hungary. Hungarians, along with Maltese, are least supportive in the EU-27 of facilitated naturalisation.
