Dear Colleagues in SLOVAKIA!

I am a psychologist and Ph.D. student at Semmelweis University, Institute of Mental Health. We are conducting research on the outcome effectiveness of a school-based psychosocial intervention program led by a Hungarian NGO. Our research is in the field of psychology, is noninvasive, and is carried out in schools (8-18 years). The given NGO was invited to expand their program to schools in Slovakia, first in the ones with Hungarian teaching language.

I am seeking information on how the research could be expanded, where can we apply for ethical approval if the research is led by the Hungarian team and we do not have a local partner institute? We have ethical approval for the Hungarian research.
