yourself due to your Agile
experience and know-how?

17. Our Vision
By the end of 2018, every refugee seeking asylum
in Austria should be handed the website
www.iamrefugee.at directly in order to prepare for
his or her new life in Austria. Thanks to all the
information found on the website, every refugee
should be empowered to have the same chances
for personal success in the long-run as someone
who has been born in Austria and is thus
automatically part of the system.
