Municipalities in the Zwettl district: exemplary fight against violence on women!

In the Zwettl district, the municipalities of Zwettl, Schweiggers and Bad Traunstein were awarded for their remarkable use of violence against women. This award took place in the state parliamentary session in St. Pölten at the beginning of December and was initiated by the Women's State Councilor Christiane Teschl-Hofmeister. A total of 89 municipalities received a specially created enamel badge, which serves as a visible sign of their commitment. Teschl-Hofmeister emphasized the importance of the violence prevention measures and recognized the responsible attitude of the communities: "It is impressive to see how active our communities are," said the State Councilor in her speech.

The event was not only a celebration of the award winners, but also a symbolic gesture to emphasize the common fight against domestic violence. In her speech, Teschl-Hofmeister explained that the high number of applicants shows how serious it is to actively fight against violence and promote prevention.

The Zwettl district itself has an interesting story and a large number of catastral communities, which are documented in the Wikipedia under District Zwettl . The regional -specific information, which reports on the historical development and the population of the area, underline how deeply rooted the engagement against violence in this area is. These awards are not only a form of recognition, but also a call to continue working in a safe environment for all citizens.
