SUMMARY:Job fair at the MAK to create prospects
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, the 16th Vienna Job Fair Perspektive took place at the Museum of Applied Arts (MAK). The fair is aimed at Viennese people who find it particularly difficult to find a job.  \n24 social enterprises from Vienna were open to the public at the job fair on Tuesday between 9.30 am and 4.30 pm. The fair is organized by Arbeit plus in cooperation with the AMS Vienna and the Wiener Arbeitnehmer*innen Förderungsfonds (waff). The Ministry of Social Affairs\, the Social Welfare Office (MA 40) and the Vienna Social Fund are also represented.   \nJobseekers should receive advice and support as well as specific job offers in the socio-economic enterprises to enable a good re-entry. The special feature: you can apply for jobs directly on site. There are hundreds of offers from various sectors such as catering\, IT and retail to choose from.   \nUnemployment in Vienna above average\nThe unemployment rate in Vienna is the highest among the federal states. At 11.7 percent\, it is well above the Austrian average of seven percent. The fair is primarily aimed at those Viennese who have been looking for work for some time or for whom special circumstances\, such as health restrictions\, caring responsibilities or a lack of education\, make it difficult to find a job. According to the main organizer Arbeit plus\, it is precisely these people who are a valuable resource for the Viennese job market.    \nOn-site advice and support\nAround half of all unemployed people in Vienna have no further education or vocational training. The aim is to counteract this. In addition to specific job offers\, organizations such as waff and Fonds Soziales Wien offer advice on further training opportunities. Jobseekers are also to be offered prospects through qualification and advisory services.    \n  \nEvent information\nEvent: “Arbeitplus” job fair\nWhen: October 14\, 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. \nWhere: Weiskirchnerstraße 3\, 1010 Vienna \nExcerpt from Original – Vienna ORF\, October 14\, 2025

SUMMARY:Innovation in Politics Awards 2025
DESCRIPTION:On September 17\, 2025\, the Innovation in Politics Awards gala took place in Vienna – an event that puts the spotlight on innovative projects and bold ideas from all over Europe. We were there to witness best practices in democracy\, integration and social cohesion being honored.  \nThe awards are not only an award ceremony\, but also a stage for exchange\, networking and inspiration. Finalists from more than 20 countries were selected in eight categories – including Social Cohesion & Integration\, Democracy Technologies and Local Development. The projects show what is possible when politics\, civil society and technology work together to overcome real challenges.    innovationinpolitics.eu \nIt was particularly exciting for us to see how many initiatives deal directly with topics that migrant also works with: Integration\, co-determination\, educational opportunities and social participation. The evening was a strong signal that innovation and empathy go hand in hand – and that change is possible when people and organizations stand together.

SUMMARY:VIDC Podcast and Policy Brief: Gender Apartheid in Afghanistan
DESCRIPTION:On 23 and 24 May\, the Afghan Cultural Association AKIS is organizing the conference “Against Gender Apartheid. Promoting Afghan women and girls through education and work” in cooperation with the VIDC\, the Vienna Chamber of Labor and the trade union women in the Austrian Trade Union Federation (ÖGB). The reception and conference will address the situation of gender apartheid\, in particular the catastrophic educational situation of Afghan girls and women.    \nPolicy Brief: Gender Apartheid in Afghanistan. Recognition as a crime against humanity \nIn response to the Taliban’s misogynistic system\, Afghan women have launched campaigns and engaged in transnational networks to have gender-specific persecution and discrimination recognized as gender apartheid. The aim of the campaigns is to provide victims and survivors of gender apartheid with a legal framework to hold the Taliban accountable as perpetrators under international law. To support the campaigns\, VIDC Global Dialogue has drafted a policy brief.   \nBackground\nSince their return to power in August 2021 and the establishment of their Islamic Emirate\, the Taliban have imposed a system of gender apartheid. They have made sweeping changes to governance that disproportionately restrict women’s freedoms\, dismantling the 2004 Afghan constitution and abolishing all legal bodies that promote gender equality. One of the Taliban’s first restrictive measures was the replacement of the Ministry of Women’s Affairs – a body that strengthened women’s rights – with the Ministry for the Propagation of Virtue and Prevention of Vice\, an institution designed to enforce a strict interpretation of Sharia law. In addition\, the Taliban disbanded the Afghan Independent Human Rights Commission\, which has provided crucial support to Afghans affected by human rights violations. Through these measures\, the Taliban have institutionalized the systematic persecution of Afghan women and girls on the basis of their gender.     \nIn July 2024\, the policy of persecuting women and girls\, which had previously been enforced through decrees and directives\, was codified in the Morality Law for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice\, ratified by the leader of Afghanistan Hibatullah Achundsada and published in the official gazette of the Taliban’s Ministry of Justice. This law has institutionalized the oppression of Afghan women and girls and created a deep divide between men and women. Every aspect of a woman’s and girl’s life is now controlled and restricted by regulations.   \nMay 23: Evening reception in Vienna’s Rathauskeller\n\nOpening: Councillor Andrea Mautz\nWelcome words: Ghousuddin Mir (Chairman AKIS)\, Magda Seewald (VIDC)\nBrief statements: Asiye Sel (Vienna Chamber of Labor)\, Karin Zimmermann (Federal Secretary for Women in the Austrian Trade Union Federation)\, Şafak Akçay (local councillor)\, Manizha Bakhtari (Ambassador of Afghanistan to Austria)\, Friba Sadeq (Banu magazine)\nStatement on the Vienna Afghanistan Process: Wolfgang Petritsch (President\, Austrian Institute for International Affairs)\nShort inputs:\nTahmina Salik (Empowement For Her) and Shagofah Ghafori (Afghan human rights activist): On the situation of women and girls in Afghanistan and the status of the initiative to recognize gender apartheid\nMaryam Singh (Counselling Centre for Migrants\, Austria): On the situation of Afghan women and girls in Austria\nPalwasha Kakar (former deputy minister in the Ministry of Women’s Affairs\, Afghanistan) and Forozan Zamani (student): Solidarity with Afghan women and girls\nVideo presented by Palwasha Hamzad: “AKIS education initiatives in Europe and Kabul.”\nPresentation of the Rabia Balkhi Award: Fereshteh Sama\nSpecial prize for diaspora engagement in Austria (Zahra Hashimi\, OMID Online School)\nModeration: Sharmila Hashimi (AKIS)\, Michael Fanizadeh (VIDC)\nMusical accompaniment (Hadis Rostami and Masih Shadab)\n\nVenue:\nVIDC – Vienna Institute for International Dialogue and Cooperation\nMöllwaldplatz 5/9\n1040 Vienna

SUMMARY:Migration. Woman. Family violence. - a search
DESCRIPTION:Migration is feminine. Hardly any population group faces more problems than women with a migration background. This is particularly the case with family problems and violence in the family. Strict residence regulations\, a lack of educational and employment opportunities and economic inequality are major obstacles for women with a migrant background. This makes it difficult for them to free themselves from violent relationships. This presentation will discuss and analyze the areas of residence\, the labor market and work-life balance. This knowledge should show ways to free oneself from dependencies and stop violence. Because: Migrant women must not be allowed to slip into isolation. \n\nDate: Tuesday\, March 18\, 2025\, from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.\nVenue: 15th\, Gasgasse 8-10\, Stiege 1\, 1st floor left\, Amtshaus Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus\, seminar room of the Department of Integration and Diversity\nSpeaker: Angela Ivezic (Counseling Center for Migrants)\nRegistration: online\n\nExcerpt from Original – City of Vienna\, March 7\, 2025

SUMMARY:Democracy gap - Is our citizenship law still up to date?
DESCRIPTION:When we talk about democracy\, many people first think of the right to vote. This is linked to Austrian citizenship and thus leads to a worrying democratic gap in a diverse and international metropolis like Vienna. Currently\, 29% of Viennese employees and 68% of Viennese workers do not have Austrian citizenship and therefore do not have the right to vote.   \nThe young generation is particularly affected\, which means that the democratic deficit is increasing from year to year. The experience of not having the right to a political say leaves deep scars on people’s sense of belonging and identification with Austria.  \nExperts on citizenship law and naturalization will discuss the extent of political exclusion and what changes are needed for genuine representation and fairer access to Austrian citizenship. \nJoin the discussion and share your experiences\, observations and ideas for solutions with us! \nWhere: FAKTory Universitätsstraße 9\, 1010 Vienna \nAn event of the series “Reden über Demokratie” of the AK Vienna.

SUMMARY:Doubly discriminated against: Viennese women with a migration background
DESCRIPTION:Doubly discriminated against: Viennese women with a migration background\n\n\nCity of Vienna invites newly arrived women to an information day on March 8 \nVienna (OTS) –   \nHalf of Viennese women between the ages of 15 and 64 have foreign citizenship or were born abroad. 46% of women working in health and social professions have a migrant background.  In wholesale and retail\, more than half of the employees in these sectors are women. Despite their importance in maintaining the quality of life in the city of Vienna\, migrant women are affected by poorer working conditions and significant differences in income. On Women’s Day\, the Department of Integration and Diversity\, together with the Vienna Employment Promotion Fund (waff)\, the Vienna Business Agency and the Advice Center for Migrant Women\, will provide information on further training\, self-employment and employment law issues.  \nDoubly discriminated against\nWomen earn less than men. Women with a migrant background earn even less. Migrant women from third countries with the same level of education earn on average 500Ꞓ to 800Ꞓ less than women without a migration background. In addition\, migrant women from third countries are particularly often affected by poor working conditions. They often work in jobs with early or night shifts and are less likely to have permanent and open-ended employment contracts.     \n“Equal access to the labor market and qualified employment promote integration into the labor market and enable immigrant women to continue their educational and professional careers in Vienna. This is why we need good framework conditions\, such as advice on employment law and offers of specialist German courses\, including childcare\, in order to support women in their professional development and promote them in the best possible way\,” says Theodora Manolakos\, Head of the Department of Integration and Diversity of the City of Vienna.  \nLectures and advice for newly arrived women\nTo help women get off to a good start in Vienna\, the Department of Integration and Diversity is organizing an information day on 8 March\, International Women’s Day\, as part of the “StartWien” programme. Visitors can attend presentations on a variety of topics specifically tailored to newly arrived Viennese women. On March 8\, there will be information on self-employment and further training for women on the subject of the labor market.   \n\nInfo day StartVienna on Women’s Day: Saturday\, March 8\, 2025\, starting at 2 p.m.\, 10th\, Arthaberplatz 18\, Adult Education Center (VHS)\nFactsheet “Migrant women in the labor market”\n\n\nExcerpt from Original – City of Vienna\, March 7\, 2025

SUMMARY:International Women's Day
DESCRIPTION:International Women’s Day is aimed at combating the multiple discrimination and exploitation of women and girls all over the world. Every year\, the Women’s Service (MA 57) organizes events to mark the occasion.  \nAs early as 1910\, the German socialist Klara Zetkin called for the introduction of a Women’s Day. On March 19\, 1911\, the first Women’s Day was celebrated in Denmark\, Germany\, Austria-Hungary and Switzerland. In Vienna\, 20\,000 people demonstrated for women’s rights on the Ring. The defining issue – also in the following years – was the demand for free\, secret and equal voting rights for women. It was fulfilled in Austria on November 12\, 1918.     \nOn March 8\, 1917\, workers’ and soldiers’ wives demonstrated in St. Petersburg on International Women’s Day\, triggering the February Revolution. To commemorate the role of women in the revolution\, March 8 was proposed as an international day of remembrance in Moscow in 1921.  \nOn Women’s Days\, numerous other political goals were then raised\, such as reducing working hours without wage cuts\, lowering food prices\, regular school meals and legal abortion. \nNazi era until the 1970s\nDuring the Nazi era\, the holiday was officially banned. It was only after the end of the Second World War that the women’s movement took it up again\, although its significance increasingly dwindled. This changed with the women’s movement in the 1960s and 1970s. During this time\, there were calls for the ban on abortion to be lifted.    \nInternational Women’s Day has been celebrated worldwide on March 8 since the United Nations General Assembly (UN) passed a resolution to this effect in December 1977. \nObjectives and measures of the City of Vienna\nWomen’s Day has now become firmly anchored in the consciousness of our society. The efforts and measures for equality between men and women go far beyond this day. The City of Vienna has set itself the goal of ensuring that every woman and girl in Vienna can live a safe\, self-determined and independent life. To achieve this\, it is also important to promote the advancement of women and close the income gap. In order to ensure this in the public sector\, Vienna is leading by example and has achieved extensive income transparency of municipal salaries by law.     \nAn innovative milestone was set with the project to link public contracts awarded by the city to measures to promote women. The awarding of public contracts is an important lever for initiating gender equality measures in Viennese companies.  \nVienna Women’s Day at City Hall\nThe Housing\, Housing Construction\, Urban Renewal and Women’s Department and the Women’s Service of the City of Vienna (MA 57) invite you to celebrate International Women’s Day every year. \n  \nExcerpt from Original – City of Vienna\, March 11\, 2025
