of UPE and HUSF president
on the one hand, and his
capacity as the Co-Chair of the
Hungarian Rector’s Conference
on the other. Mr Roczek firstly
congratulated Mr Mocsai on his
appointment, and informed him
of the exceptional relationship
already built with the HUSF
during its former leadership,
while looking forward to
continued good cooperation
between the federation and
EUSA, especially ahead of the


seventh edition of the European
Universities Games which are
scheduled to take place in the
Hungarian cities of Miskolc and
Debrecen in 2024.

special focus on the Belgrade
Games and effects of Covid-19.

aspects of the Games were
discussed, including the Rectors’
Conference and the legacy of
the event.
