KHOM puts nearby: ÖVP is looking for new ways to the citizens!

At the exam of the Styrian People's Party, which took place in the St. Lambrecht Abbey in the Murau district, the executive state party chairman Manuela Khom confirmed its commitment to expanding the ÖVP into the most modern and powerful party organization in Austria. Under the motto "close to humans. The future in view", Khom made it clear that significant steps in this direction were necessary by 2029. The exam took place on April 11, 2025 and was an important gathering for the successor to the MP Conference, especially with regard to the upcoming state election in November.

according to vienna.at there were around 70 participants, including many members of the extended state party executive and deputy. Khom, who also acts as the governor of Styria, emphasized the central value of the Christian-social principles in her speech. This was underpinned by a word service to strengthen these values ​​on Friday morning.

The goal of the ÖVP and challenges before the election

khom focused on the need to regain the trust of people to the ÖVP. She explained that it was not just about whether the ÖVP puts the governor, but rather to assume responsibility. In a clear signal to the party base, she explained that she saw her role similar to a music band in which she sets the tone. This was rewarded with standing ovation at the end of her speech.

In addition, the care of the ÖVP was pointed out to women, families and seniors. Khom sees it as her task to fight for all Styrians, which underlines the importance of uniform solutions. The rural area in particular is taken into account to ensure that no region is disadvantaged. Your invitation to the citizens to contact them with concerns and tackle challenges together reinforces this message.

values ​​as a central part of the political orientation

A central aspect of the exam was the discussion about the consolidation of the Christian-social value. As reports khom.steiermark.at , the claim is to be given attention and support every person, regardless of gender, age or place of residence. This is also reflected in the broad cosmos of the new People's Party, which includes basic principles such as freedom, responsibility, justice and solidarity.

The discussion about Christian-social values ​​in an increasingly secular society, as it was discussed in the publication Campustivoli , clarifies the challenges that the ÖVP is facing. It applies to the image of man who, regardless of origin and gender, promises the same dignity to realize in political work.

With a state party conference that will take place on June 14th, KHOM has another important course in which she has to be elected as a party chairman. While possible opposing candidates are in the discussion, she has clearly commented on democracy and political coexistence in the party.

The exam of the Styrian People's Party under Khom's management not only shows the inner -party challenges, but also the strong will to seek closeness to people and to consolidate the ÖVP's value base in society.
