On July 8, 2024, we presented the current status of our work on Earth4All Austria as part of the Vienna Climate Biennale at the Nordwestbahnhof festival area, Nordwestbahnstraße 16, 1200 Vienna.

The event was fully booked and could also be followed on the Internet! Many thanks for the active participation.

Our entire team is working under high pressure to compile the information, insights, and ideas from the past weeks and document them consistently in an initial report. The discussions from public events, the collaborative efforts in workshops, interviews with stakeholders, surveys, and model results will all be included in this first Earth4All Austria report.

However, we don’t want to simply present a report and say, “This is it, and this is what must be done.” That approach won’t work and can’t succeed. This is a first draft, an interim report, a work in progress. Transformation is a process, and we see every day that we are all in the midst of it.

Therefore, we would like to present our findings from the past months and discuss them with you, working together to further develop them. This great transformation towards the “Giant Leap” can only happen collectively, and we are very much looking forward to meeting you.
