Military training is far more than just building physical endurance – it is a complex educational and preparatory process that shapes the body, mind, and character all at once. What principles guide the structure of basic training in the Hungarian Defence Forces? How are young recruits prepared for discipline, teamwork, and decision-making under pressure? Our speakers will explore the practices and pedagogy of military training, balancing tradition with modern expectations. A world recently glimpsed on television now appears beyond the screen – in real-life context – at MCC Feszt.
