Building Thriving Communities 101 — Identity | Culture | Safety

Join us for our "Community-Building 101' networking series, focused on the principles of effective community-building — for & by community-builders. We bring together different communities, including speakers & participants from 'Austrian Startups', 'European Mentoring and Coaching Council', 'Professional Women’s Network Vienna', 'Self-Employed in Austria,' 'Tech2Impact,' 'Vienna Family Network,' 'UNCAC Civil Society Coalition,' ‘Vienna Audio Exchange,’ 'VIS Parent-Teacher-Association,' 'World Bank Family Network,' and many more. Our goal is to support community-builders across communities here in Vienna and support them in strengthening their ability to deliver great value for Internationals. Join any one (or more) and let other community-builders know as well. #1 (September 2026)Purpose, People & Value: What's our Why? #2 (October 2026)Identity, Culture & Safety: How do Communities develop identity? #3 (November 2026)Spaces, Engagement & Programs: Supply & Demand & What's next? #4 (December 2026)Governance, Roles & Sustainability: What are the rules that help?
