VIENNA’S<br />

STRATEGIES FOR<br />

SOCIAL<br />

INFRASTRUCTURE<br />

The City of Vienna sees one of its main tasks in providing the<br />

population of the Austrian capital with access to social infra -<br />

structure and in particular to education, as education improves<br />

career and income possibilities and upward mobility, but also<br />

strengthens the ability to engage in democratic processes, discussion<br />

and criticism. Vienna’s urban planning supports this goal<br />

by not only reserving sufficient land for educational facilities, but<br />

also creating “good learning spaces” in schools, kindergartens<br />

and li braries – spaces that are easily accessible, can be used<br />

in multiple ways, are open to all and attractively designed for their<br />

users.<br />
