Remarks to progress by Liga (last modified Dec 31, 2024):
An open letter from Asylum Coordination Austria calls on the federal government to expand the range of services in the areas of youth and social work as well as political education and participation. Barrier-free and equal opportunities should be created, especially for people affected by racism, in order to involve them more strongly in democratic processes. This is particularly important for young people. (see: https://archiv2022.asyl.at/de/info/news/offenerbriefandiebundesregierung/index.html). The letter emphasises the need to promote cultural integration through such measures in order to improve participation and coexistence in society. Despite the introduction of the World Programme for Human Rights Education by the United Nations in December 2004, human rights education measures are being implemented in Austria, but there is still a need for increased commitment in this area in order to promote social cohesion and counteract discrimination.
