Students: internal protest against FPÖ-ÖVP: Future for everyone on February 14th!

On Friday, February 14, 2025, the state school students: Home Representation of Vienna (LSV Vienna) calls on a school strike to protest the impending government formation of FPÖ and ÖVP. A large demonstration is organized under the motto "Blau-Schwarz must not go school", which begins at 9:30 a.m. on Stephanplatz and ends around the Ballhausplatz in front of the Federal Chancellery. Students: Inside and representatives: Inside numerous youth organizations are called to participate in this protest. Leon Rudan, the AHS state school spokesman, emphasizes the responsibility of the pupils: inside, to work for a fair education and an inclusive future, while Jacob Guberner, deputy AHS state school spokesman, points out the risk that an FPÖ-led government could strengthen social inequalities and suppress critical voices, as OTS reported.

demonstration for education and climate protection

The strike should set a clear sign against cuts in education and discrimination. The students: Inside, not only a fair education system demands, but also active climate protection and more participation for young people. At a time when social justice and climate protection are more urgent than ever, the organizers rely on strong visibility and broad participation. At the same time, the global climate strike will take place on September 15, which also remains anything but unnoticed. The educational directorate enables schools to participate in these events, provided that the safety of the students: inside is guaranteed. Schools can decide independently whether and how they participate in the climate strikes, which underlines the diversity of school activities on such important topics, as reported.
