Overview
Organized by the African Cultural Foundation, SETI, and Diaspora Creatives, this event highlights the achievements of African and diaspora women while offering tools for personal and professional growth.
This event highlights the critical role of support systems in women’s success, encompassing the encouragement of other women and the invaluable allyship of men. Amplifying the voices of women and showcasing the supportive frameworks surrounding them illuminates pathways to growth, providing actionable insights and solutions for those seeking to follow in their footsteps.
In addition to celebrating success, the event emphasizes the importance of sorority and well-being, recognizing these as vital components of women’s mental, emotional, and personal development. The program will also offer practical tools and resources to enhance career opportunities, boost competitiveness in the job market, and empower women to thrive professionally.
Through this event, we aim to inspire, empower, and equip women to achieve their fullest potential while fostering a spirit of sisterhood and collaboration.
Celebrating Women, Building Bridges, Inspiring Change...
The first edition of “Empower Her” was a groundbreaking two-day event that brought together women from diverse backgrounds and origins to celebrate their achievements, resilience, and collective power. The event underscored the importance of collaboration, mutual support, and community-building, creating a space for inspiration, networking, and empowerment.
As the first event of its kind in Vienna, EmpowerHer2025 provided a platform to amplify the voices of women from the diaspora and women of color, fostering connections across different communities and sectors. From strategic marketing to effective communication, every aspect of the event was designed to elevate women and highlight their contributions—whether in professional spheres, social engagement, or creative industries. By showcasing their stories and achievements, EmpowerHer2025 not only raised awareness but also strengthened the positive impact of diaspora and migrant women in Vienna. More than just a gathering, it became a catalyst for future collaborations and projects aimed at empowering the broader community.
