Our alumni communities: AHAU - Azerbaijan Hungary Alumni Union

Our alumni communities and networks are growing day by day and have reached around 10.000 members. Some of them decided to organize chapters (small groups) to keep in contact or build professional collaboration with each other. In 2022 our alumni volunteers launched 6 different new alumni groups (4 local and 2 professional) giving a chance to the members to join. In our new column, Hikmat Hasanov introduces the Azerbaijan Hungary Alumni Union (AHAU) in Baku.
