Austrian Cultural Forum of the Austrian Embassy, New Delhi together with Delhi Tourism has embarked upon to present an unusual touring Exhibition which attempts to project the life stories of important Austrian & Indian women of the past 200 years. Women have far too often been forgotten, overlooked and marginalised irrespective of period, geographical boarders and cultures. But yet their lives and their works have been found quite exemplary and source of growth, development, expansion and improvement for the society in general.
Projecting these unsung women Champions from Austria and India together in full knowledge of inevitable gaps, the exhibition "Inspiring Women - Austria-India" (Calliope Austria) representing the almost the same period was inaugurated in New Delhi on August 25, 2017 jointly by H.E. Mrs Brigitte Oeppinger-Walchshofer, Ambassador of Austria and Ms. Varsha Joshi, Secretary (Tourism), Govt. of Delhi.
