On Thursday, March 26, 2026, the Austrian Reading Day was celebrated at the StartWien Hub with a diverse and lively program.

Unlike last year, the course instructors designed individual reading sessions specifically tailored to their respective groups. These sessions didn't just involve reading aloud – stories were also freely told, shared, and experienced together.

As part of the Erasmus+ mobility program „Engage Digitally, Learn Playfully“, seven employees from Interface Vienna, representing various projects, traveled to Timișoara, Romania, during the first week of March. Together with partner organizations from several European countries, they exchanged ideas on how digital tools, artificial intelligence, and playful learning methods can better support young people in their learning.

Colors, focused faces, collaborative problem-solving, team laughter: The artistic photo medley about basic education for young people at Interface Wien impressively demonstrates what learning means here. Holistic learning is central to the basic education program for young people and young adults – many of whom are new to Austria and have a refugee background.
