RESUME
Hungarian life in Columbia
This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the Hungarian diaspora in Colombia, with a focus on the communal life, organizational structures, and methods of cultural and identity preservation. Initiated by the author’s experience as an exchange student, the research utilizes personal examples and both qualitative and quantitative methodologies and, including detailed surveys and in-depth interviews with key members of the diaspora. The study seeks to address a notable gap in scholarly literature by exploring the specific challenges and dynamics of this community, which has received limited academic attention. In particular, the research delves into the historical patterns of Hungarian
migration to Colombia, the socio-political factors that influenced these movements, and the subsequent development of Hungarian diaspora communities. Furthermore, it investigates the role of language as both a barrier and a bridge in the preservation of national identity, alongside the significant influence of institutional and cultural support from
Hungary. Through this analysis, the study sheds light on how transnational connections and local efforts contribute to the ongoing maintenance of Hungarian identity in a geographically and culturally distant context.
