11th Integration Festival - From Kabul to Vienna, 31.8.-1.9.24

The integration festival "From Kabul to Vienna", which is organised under the motto "Equality", is now in its eleventh year and has established itself as an annual highlight for the promotion of integration and inclusion through sport and cultural exchange. The festival provides an important platform for highlighting positive examples of successful integration and is aimed at both newcomers and the general public in Austria.

The project endeavours to create a positive intercultural social environment, facilitate the integration of migrants and refugees, establish a space for encounters, break down prejudices and impart knowledge about human rights, fair play, social justice and anti-discrimination. It promotes intercultural exchange and contributes to better coexistence. The diverse target group includes the groups concerned as well as various stakeholders in the field of integration and the media.

Programme items:

• Sporting competitions such as football and volleyball tournaments
• Cultural events including live music and exhibitions
• Presentation of initiatives, projects and clubs that are tailored to the needs of refugees and migrants
• Workshops on the topics of fair play, SDGs and anti-discrimination
• Children and youth programmes that promote playful learning and exercise (chess, streetkick, microsoccer and skate courses)
