53 universities (ELTE, University of Pécs, University of Debrecen, Pázmány Péter Catholic University), students of the ELTE Bárczi Gusztáv Faculty of Special Education and the psychology majors of the University of Debrecen were acquainted, inter alia, with the concepts of torture and its prevention and the interpretation of the concept of places of detention. The most complex transfer of knowledge was realized at the Faculty of Law and Political Sciences of the University of Pécs where a study group was launched on the topic “The Lucifer effect and beyond. How to prevent torture, cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment in closed institutions?”. In addition to graduate education, some members of the Department participate in the training of PhD students as well. The Department’s staff participated in several domestic and international conferences in the course of the year; they were also invited to various round table discussions in connection with the reports published by the NPM. Publishing in professional journals also facilitates the wide dissemination of knowledge on the OPCAT.
