The Association of Catholic Publicists mourns the loss of his long -time chairman Gabriele Neuwirth, who died at the age of 77.

a lasting inheritance
Neuwirth's work and her vision for the association left a lasting impression. She was the first woman at the top and successfully started projects such as a Journalism job exchange and a association newsletter for networking. Her deep conviction that mutual support among colleagues is essential shaped her work. "The Christian image of man protects us from arrogance ...," emphasized association chairwoman Sophie Lauringer in her honor for Neuwirth's merits.
The Wildon native started her journalistic career at the "Sonntagsblatt for Styria" and worked in several renowned editorial offices, including the weekly newspaper "Present" and the Wiener Church newspaper "Der Sonntag". The title Professor, whom she received in 2018, and the Gerhard Weir Ehrenring, which she was the first wearer, are just a few of the many awards that recognize her influence and commitment in the Catholic media landscape. Gabriele Neuwirth has always emphasized that journalism should be more than just satisfying his own urge to write; He should be a bridge to the truth and people, Lauringer continues.
