Warum wirkt Politik bei drängenden Herausforderungen oft handlungsunfähig, obwohl Probleme & Lösungen längst bekannt sind? Das Panel hinterfragt kritisch die verbreitete Erzählung, dass notwendige Veränderungen wirtschaftlich unzumutbar, finanziell nicht leistbar oder politisch unrealistisch seien und macht sichtbar, wo reale Handlungsspielräume für eine zukunftsfähige Gesellschaft liegen.

On Friday, we hosted a panel discussion on the budget cuts in Arts and Culture, where we gained valuable insights from former vice chancellor Werner Kogler, EU-expert Heidemarie Meißnitzer and artist Vasilena Gankovska. Thoughts and opinions were shared on the situation of women in the arts, policies by former Austrian governments, decisions on the federal level and what we can do as civic society to support artists.
Thank you to our panellists and to all of you who attended the talk!
We are excited to announce our panel!
