Rebeka Katalin Szabó (born November 20, 1977)[1] is a Hungarian biologist, ecologist and politician, member of the National Assembly (MP) from Politics Can Be Different (LMP) National List between 2010 and 2014.[2]

Education

She earned a degree in biology at Faculty of Science of the Eötvös Loránd University.

Political career

She was a founding member of the LMP party between 2009 and 2013.[1] She was elected to the National Assembly from the party's National List during the 2010 Hungarian parliamentary election. She had been a member of the Committee on Agriculture between May 14, 2010 and February 11, 2013. She became a member of the Committee of National Cohesion on February 25, 2013.[2]

In January 2013, the LMP's congress rejected against the electoral cooperation with other opposition forces, including Together 2014.[3] As a result members of LMP’s “Dialogue for Hungary” platform, including Rebeka Szabó, announced their decision to leave the opposition party and form a new organization. Benedek Jávor said he eight MPs leaving LMP would keep their parliamentary mandates. The leaving MPs established Dialogue for Hungary as a full-fledged party.[4]

In November 2014, Szabó was elected to the Zugló council, where she became Deputy Mayor.[5]

Szabó was elected co-leader of the Dialogue for Hungary, alongside Bence Tordai in July 2022.[6]
