In spite of decreases over the last 20 years, injury remains the leading cause of child and adolescent death and disability in Hungary.


Injury prevention work to address child and adolescent injury in Hungary is led by the Ministry of Health in collaboration with other relevant Ministries. Hungary is represented on the European Child Safety Alliance Steering Committee by the National Institute of Child Health.


The current priority areas for child and adolescent injury prevention and safety promotion include home safety, road safety and gaining government endorsement of the Child Safety Action Plan for the Hungary whose goals and actions should be integrated into a broader policy framework, the National Infant and Child Health Program.
