Vienna strengthens women: New educational plan for a migration background!

The Wiener Zeitung has defended itself against critical voices that question their independence. Editor -in -chief Katharina Schmidt emphasizes that the medium reaches a multiple of the public with a third of the previous costs and operates pioneering digital journalism. The independence of the editorial team, which has been legally anchored since the transformation in 2023, is undisputed. "Anyone who claims that the Wiener Zeitung is less independent today ignores the facts," said Schmidt. In addition, she rejects the accusation of a "strangle area" because these claims were expressed without substantial basis. The chairman of the editorial advisory board, Michael Ortner, supports this argument and emphasizes the numerous investigative research that has been carried out in the past year and a half.

New educational plan for migrants in Vienna

in Vienna there is a new three-stage "language and educational plan", which is intended to support women with a migration background to improve their opportunities on the labor market. The integration city councilor Sandra Frauenberger and the education city councilor Christian Oxonitsch presented details of the expanded program on Monday. It begins with German and literacy courses in the mother tongue, followed by the proven "Mama learns German" courses that have already attended 6,000 women. In women's college in Simmering, women deepen their language skills and general education in order to go to the employee promotion fund after the course with a certificate as a "labor market fit". The city is investing five million euros for this, which means that 1,600 women can take part in the program.

This initiative is particularly important because women with a migration background are often disadvantaged in education and on the labor market. Statistics show that 73% of Turkish -born women only have a compulsory school leaving certificate. The politicians emphasize that the goal is to enable these women an independent and independent professional future. Öztürk and Biter, both of whom learn in women's college, want to become strong and independent through their training. "We want to be strong women," Biter affirmed. This not only proves the commitment to the Wiener Zeitung for a democratic discourse, but also the city of Vienna for the integration and support of disadvantaged groups.

This double message of independence and support shows how important a strong media landscape and social programs are for the community. The Wiener Zeitung remains an example of modern journalism, while Vienna continuously works to improve equal opportunities for all citizens.
