Vojvodina Hungarian Digital Archive
The Vojvodina Hungarian Cultural Institute launched the VAMADIA Digital Archive in 2019, which aims to digitize and make accessible the intellectual and tangible cultural heritage of the Hungarians in Vojvodina.

The institute's staff conducts research, publishes books and periodicals, and organizes conferences and cultural events.
