- summary
- Budapest police banned a Trans Pride demonstration planned by Prizma Közösség for 29 March 2026 (Transgender Day of Visibility) outside the Ministry of Justice, citing the 2025 law prohibiting the 'promotion' of homosexuality and gender diversity to minors. Amnesty International Hungary, the Hungarian Helsinki Committee, Háttér Society and the Hungarian Civil Liberties Union condemned the ban as a disproportionate and discriminatory restriction on peaceful assembly.
