Zollner was one of the founders of the Pontifical Commission for the Protection of Minors, and was an adviser to Pope Francis, but left the post in 2023. Since then he has been a leading expert at the institute for abuse and victim protection, IACD. Previously, the German Jesuit priest visited Hungary in 2019. He says that although it is happening slowly, he does see a change in the church in Hungary since his last visit.
