Health literacy is one of the key determinants of health during childhood and adolescence, yet evidence on the social and environmental factors that shape it remains fragmented in the literature. Our research group's scoping review synthesizes this evidence: after screening several thousand records, it draws on 52 studies to show which social dimensions produce the largest differences in young people's health literacy, and what practical steps follow from this for teachers and educational institutions.

In the spring of 2026 our research group conducted a questionnaire survey among 734 secondary school students on their health literacy and health awareness. The research report presents the key findings across ten topics, among them food consumption patterns, students' nutritional knowledge, their awareness of dietary issues, and their ability to translate this knowledge into everyday decisions.

On 3 December 2025 our research group took part in the scientific symposium of the Public Education Development Research Programme of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. At the event, the research groups completing the first four-year research cycle of the programme presented their results, certificates of recognition were awarded, and the new research groups were introduced.

On 20 November 2025, Dr. Anna Kiss, a member of our research group, defended her doctoral dissertation entitled "Knowledge Mapping and Knowledge Discovery for the Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) Approach in Sports Education" with a summa cum laude result, in the Sport and Health Education programme of the Doctoral School of Education at ELTE PPK. Congratulations to Anna on her successful defence!
