Democracy Talks

At our FES Democracy Talks, we invite our Vienna-based partners from politics, academia, and civil society to engage in low-threshold conversations about general and current political issues related to democracy in Austria, Europe, and the world. FES Democracy Talks generally take place at the FES Vienna event space at Reichsratsstraße 13/12.

As the name suggests, the focus is on conversation: The input from our invited guests is deliberately kept brief to allow ample space for questions, discussions, and mutual exchange. Refreshments are also provided – with small snacks and drinks – because the best conversations often arise in a relaxed atmosphere.

Depending on our guest, Democracy Talks are held in English or German.
