"Glocalisation - local roots, global success "
About 565,000 Austrian citizens are currently living abroad. Their economic, cultural and personal commitment contributes significantly to Austria's public image in the world. However, there is also an interaction from which the country benefits. In an increasingly globalized world, national borders are becoming more and more abstract. Through constant exchange, new opportunities arise and a process of learning and common growth takes place. Fellow citizens abroad thus make a valuable contribution to the region.
The Salon Europa Forum Wachau invites you to discuss this topic together.
