Voluntary Action Cuisine
Voluntary Action Cuisine
Luminosus is proud to join the Voluntary Action Cuisine Erasmus+ project, in which five countries – Slovakia, Hungary, Albania, Poland, and the Czech Republic – shared their best-practice volunteer actions.
The project aims to inspire civil organizations and communities by showing how exciting, creative, and community-building volunteer events can be organized. The resulting Volunteer Action Cookbook presents each action as a “recipe”: from ingredients to step-by-step instructions and tips needed for successful implementation.
What can you find in the cookbook?
- Ingredients: all necessary resources and tools
- Preparation: the full process of the action, step by step
- Tips and tricks: how to maximize participants’ experience
Actions can include: organizing a community garden, donation drives, creative workshops, or larger community events. The book helps plan, organize, and carry out actions so that every participant gains experiences and a sense of accomplishment.
The publication is available in Hungarian, English, and Slovak.

Organise with ÖMI! - Our online manual has been published
Do you have a dream or a plan that you don't dare to embark on alone? Would you like to enlist helpers and volunteers for your ideas? Then our manual on volunteer management is for you!
Our project called Önkéntesmenedzsment 2.0 (Managing Volunteers), 2021-2-HU01-KA210-YOU-000049546, aimed to strengthen the participation of young people in society. To this end, the staff and young volunteers of the three partner organisations (Talentum Alapitvány, Luminosus n.o., Caritas Subotica) created an easy-to-use online manual that provides practical guidance for volunteer coordinators. The publication presents the story of Ömi and his friends on how to implement a project with the help of volunteers, and you will also find useful professional materials on volunteer management from recruitment to farewell. The language of the online handbook is Hungarian.
The project is funded by the European Union under the Erasmus+ programme.

Cs. Nagy Lajos: Medvesalja magyar nyelvjárási atlasza
The published language atlas is the result of 20 years of research work by Cs. Nagy Lajos.
The Atlas of Dialects contributes to the knowledge of a cross-border, hitherto mostly unknown and relatively closed ethnographic and dialectal area.
Research locations: Šurice, Hajnáčka, Číž, Gemeralmád, Dubovec, Gemerské Dechtáre, Stará Bašta, Nová Bašta, Bákonys, Večelkov, Medvešské Studničky, Tachty.
Through 750 map sheets, this atlas presents the names of the most typical traditional everyday objects and foods, as well as the spatial realisations of lexical, morphological and phonetic variants. It is the first computerized atlas in which the author makes available his own research material.
The language atlas provides valuable information not only to dialectologists, but also to historical and theoretical linguists, ethnologists, researchers of the history of settlement and anyone interested in the mother tongue.
Publisher: Luminosus n.o., Veľké Kapušany, 2011 (798 pages)
The publication of the book was supported by Office of the Government of the Slovak Republic.
The publication can be ordered at office@luminosus.sk, price: 22 euros + postage.

Nyitnikék - Prága. Táncba szőtt történetek
The publication, edited by Tihamér Lacza, presents the „golden period” of one of the most important amateur Hungarian folklore ensembles from southern Slovakia - the Nyitnikék group - through the writings and memories of its members.
The ensemble Nyitnikék indeed occupies an exceptional place among folklore groups in southern Slovakia - as the compiler of the book, Tihamér Lacza, expresses it in the text on the front cover:
„If we try to place the original Nyitnikék group in the context of the Hungarian folklore movement in southern Slovakia, it is no exaggeration to say that it was a unique phenomenon.“
