What is left to talk about? Political discourse in times of fragmentation and polarisation in society
Date:
Friday, 3 May 2024, 14:00-17:15
Saturday, 4 May: 09.30-12.45
Location: University of Applied Sciences Burgenland, Campus 1, Eisenstadt
What can we still talk to each other about - without ending up in a confrontation in a short space of time? In liberal democracies, we are increasingly confronted with polarisation in public discourse. Instead of talking to each other, we talk about each other. Positions are presented in a pointed, abbreviated and exaggerated manner and the chance of compromise is diminishing. What impact does this situation have on socio-political discourse? And what does this mean for elections and election campaigns - especially for the upcoming European Parliament elections? We will be discussing these and other questions at this year's European Business Forum on the eve of the 2024 EU elections.
An event organised by the Department of Economics in cooperation with:
- Wirtschaftsagentur Burgenland
- Industriellenvereinigung Burgenland
- Informationsbüro des Europäischen Parlaments in Wien
- Wirtschaftsforum der Führungskräfte (WdF) - Landesgruppe Burgenland
Date: 14 and 15 May 2024
Time: from 09.00 am
Location: Campus Eisenstadt
Under the motto "New ways for current challenges", the 2nd annual congress of the Alliance for Sustainable Universities will take place on 14 & 15 May 2024 at the University of Applied Sciences Burgenland in Eisenstadt. With our annual congress, we want to make the diversity of our member universities visible and show how universities of applied sciences are finding new ways and solutions to meet the current challenges of our society and enable the transformation to a more sustainable world.
The event is an ideal opportunity to network with interested participants from different disciplines on the topic of sustainability at universities and to discuss and further develop new approaches to sustainability issues in the higher education sector together.

In Austria alone, around 1000 people are diagnosed with leukaemia every year, including some children. Many are waiting for a so-called stem cell donation as their last hope for survival! The chance of finding a 100% suitable donor is between 1:500,000 and several million worldwide. So it is very low. And: Unfortunately, only around 3% of all Austrians are typed!
The more people who are typed, i.e. registered as donors, the greater the chance that a suitable donor can be found if the need arises.

When Nicole Trimmel gets into the ring, her opponents have little to laugh about. The power woman from Oslip (Bgld) is the reigning world and European champion in kickboxing and has been in "competition retirement" since 2017. Sport is her passion, kickboxing her calling. She was at the top of the world in kickboxing for over ten years and dominated the market like no other. From 1999 to 2017, she won an incredible 8 World Championship titles and 5 European Championship titles. A tough woman in a dangerous sport with a keen interest in achieving her personal best. As a role model for success, sport and lifestyle, she inspires people and, above all, many women. She holds workshops in Germany and abroad and founded her own company, TRIM-FIT GmbH, in 2023. In her talks, she bridges the gap between sport and business. In October 2017, Nicole ends her long list of successes in her 408 Fight. With a "ONE LAST FIGHT" in front of 1,400 spectators in her home town of Oslip, Nicole ends her career and fulfils a long-awaited dream with this event. Let the charisma of a champion inspire you.

In many places, it is no longer really dark at night - the countless light sources in cities are shining ever brighter. Researchers refer to this form of environmental pollution as ‘light pollution’. This not only has a negative impact on the visibility of the stars, but above all on flora and fauna as well as human health. The phenomenon is constantly on the increase and is not just an urban issue, but is penetrating ever further into dark regions and protected natural areas. The lecture will discuss why light pollution is an urgent issue, what its consequences are, what the global and national situation is and what measures everyone can take to curb it.
