Participating in the first Diplomatic Dialogue for Equality, organised by the Embassies of the Netherlands, Sweden and Canada. Excellent opportunity to exchange on best practices and the roles diplomats and embassies can play to combat racism and other forms of discrimination!

Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. The City of Vienna is celebrating it with the conference "Vienna against Racism". An positive sign of an open and diverse city! Important to get a "fact check" by the @eurightsagency.bsky.social.

A view of a sunny skiing slope in St. Corona am Wechsel, with snow covered gentle hills in the distance.

A uphill view from a drag lift next to a sunny slope with skiers.

What a splendid day to kick off my personal skiing season with a day on the family friendly slopes of St. Corona/Wechsel in the Wexl Arena family skiing resort. The weather couldn't have been any better, sunny and cold enough for good snow, but not too cold!

A panel discussing the importance of local human rights work in Vienna

A wider view of the panel in front of a full audience in the historical "Wappensaal" of Vienna's city hall. On the wall behind the panel hangs the coat of arms of Vienna.

Nice to celebrate human rights day by celebrating 10 years of Vienna as a human rights city. Proud to live in a city that celebrates human rights and dedicates resources to their implementation.

Following an interesting presentation by Prof. Yuval Shandy at the law faculty of @univie.ac.at on three generations of digital human rights. Makes the case for the normative equivalence paradigm (i.e. existing human rights apply offline and online), but also highlights systemic challenges.

The director of the EU Fundamental Rights Agency, Sirpa Ratio, standing on the podium presenting their work.

I've been thinking what could be my first post here, but let's not overthink it. Very interesting presentation of @eurightsagency.bsky.social about their work. Fundamental for policy makers to have objective data and independent expert advice! And also proud we get to host them #FRA in Vienna!

🔸 #OrangeTheWorld against gender-based violence 🔸

Violence against women and girls has absolutely no place anywhere in our world. Nothing can ever justify it.

Let’s act together and end gender-based violence NOW - online and offline, in Austria and around the world❗️
