The teacher, education activist and warning against anti-Semitism, Daniel Landau, analyzes the explosive current situation in the domestic education system in the krone.tv interview: “The education chapter will soon be closed in the negotiations on the sugar coalition. The negotiators agree on many points. I also see this as a great opportunity to use the education sector to open a positive chapter against hatred in our country.”
In any case, the often confusing variety of languages prevalent in local schools and within classes is problematic in everyday school life. Many teachers can no longer convey their teaching material to the students; far too little German is spoken. Landau: “The German support classes must be reorganized. Because the way it is currently handled in practice is only the second best.” The education activist is also making people sit up with a new suggestion: “I would like to set up small, selective education districts in the many unused lower floors of home. For example in municipal housing. For students, but also parents can participate.”
Industrial estate near the women’s concentration camp?
In addition to the current educational situation, the interview also discussed a commercial area in Leobersdorf in southern Lower Austria, which could be built on the site of a former women’s concentration camp. And therefore on historically contaminated soil. Landau: “It used to be the second largest women’s concentration camp in Austria. The area was long ago converted into a business park and bought by a Swiss investor. But it now appears that relevant foundations of the former concentration camp still lie beneath the meadows there. We now aim to reverse the purchase and build a memorial there. However, the buyer may not be left with his own costs. Instead, the community should buy back the property, repurpose it and build a memorial on it.”
