Strong women's policy: Green women's organization founded in Styria!

Laimgrubengasse 10, 1060 Wien, Österreich - On December 12, 2024, the foundation of the "Green Women Styria" was announced, an important step for women's policy in the region. Meri Disoski, the chair of the "Green Women Austria", was enthusiastic about this initiative and congratulated Veronika Nitsche on her election as chair of the new organization. Nitsche, who has worked as a women's spokeswoman in the Styrian state parliament in the past five years, will strengthen women's voice in Styria in the future. "We need a strong women's representation in Styria," emphasized Nitsche, pointing out that the proportion of women in the newly elected state parliament falls under a third, which could have serious effects on equality and women's rights. This shows how important the foundation of the "Green Women Styria" is at this time, since an FPÖ state captain is imminent.

important perspectives for women

Nitsche emphasizes that the newly founded organization will not only raise voices, but also strengthen the hearing of women in society. It will take a combative attitude to promote equality and social justice. This is particularly important in view of the upcoming political changes in Styria, which could result in a step backwards in women's policy, as Disoski noted.

In addition, it should be noted that the financing of the political parties in Austria, according to the party law, is clearly regulated. Party income, such as membership fees and donations, as well as basic state financing, play a crucial role in the support of political initiatives. In 2013, the income amounted to around 41.3 million euros, of which a significant proportion of state funds came from. As reports gruene.de , only 30 percent of these finances remain with the Federal Association, which distributes the funds on the various levels of the party.
