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

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: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. Further dates:  \nApril 10\, 2025. 6.00 p.m.: Participation & Exclusion – How representative is our parliament?\nMay 14\, 2025\, 12.00 p.m.: Democracy 4.0 – Participation in the 21st century\n4.

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
