Viennese women fight for equality: social, safe, solidarity!

Laimgrubengasse 10, 1060 Wien, Österreich - International Women's Day on March 8, 2025 makes the Vienna SPÖ women to take a significant position. Under the motto "socially, safe, solidarity", they warn that consistent women's policy is necessary to offer women the support they need. LAbg. Marina Hanke, chair of the Vienna SPÖ women, emphasizes: "We do not take a step back! Neither in self -determination nor in equality in work and family." In Vienna, the social democrats are committed to creating a safe and socially secured environment for women who still encounter many challenges despite hard fights.

The women's survey "Vienna, as she wants" stands as a milestone for the participation of the Viennese in the city design and for the constant expansion of support offers. Vice Mayor Kathrin Gaál emphasizes that the city of Vienna offers a dense network of initiatives and advice centers that is suitable for all situations. In addition, the results of the survey show that women demand more time, space and opportunities. "The Viennese who participated in the survey would like more time, more space and more opportunities," explains Gaál, while she wants to continue to organize urban planning.

against right attacks on women's rights

The SPÖ Vienna sees itself as a guardian of women's rights and sees herself clearly positioned against the rhetoric of right -wing parties who want to endanger the women's political achievements. Hanke explains that with social democratic women in the federal government of women's policy is guaranteed 365 days a year. The upcoming municipal council and district representation elections on April 27, 2025 are an opportunity to further advance social democratic visions. The Vienna SPÖ women emphasize that they are committed to a just future and demand that the income gap are closed and the working conditions for women are improved.

The current campaign underlines that the fight against social injustices and violence against women is urgent. As the Wiener SPÖ emphasize women, every third woman in Austria experiences sexual assault or violence at least once in her life. They not only demand an end to these grievances, but also invite women to become active and to get involved in a feminist future. "Together we can achieve more," said the request of the SPÖ women who represent the women's organization of the SPÖ Vienna. The organization is available for more information on the growing number of initiatives and support programs to offer support and opportunities for participation, such as spoe-frauen.wien
