Shaping the future: Students ask LH Mattle about migration and energy!

Innsbruck, Österreich - What's new from the political world of Tyrol? Today the event "Question the LH" took place in the Tyrolean country house, in which students of third grade mechanical engineering of the HTL Fulpmes Governor Anton Mattle felt on the tooth. Maximilian Perktold and Jonathan Raggl took the opportunity to ask their questions directly on current topics, including above all migration policy.

The governor made it clear that the willingness to help is important for migrants, even if illegal migration and criminal tugs have to be prevented. The responsibility is not only at the national level, but also with the EU. This repeatedly emphasizes the need for a successful integration policy, as can be seen in a report by the European Union about migrant integration: in many countries, governments are towards similar challenges that require cooperation and coordination. Integration is a two -sided process - both migrants and society have to pull together to create harmonious coexistence.

insights into local politics

Another question from the students dealt with the local tariffs in leisure activities. Mattle supports advantages for locals, similar to that is handled in other European cities. The EU plans to discuss the topic again next autumn. This is a sign that the concerns of the domestic population are heard at the political level. In view of 109,000 asylum applications last year, as Karl Nehammer often emphasized, there is a strong need for clear regulations in asylum and migration law.

In this context, Austria's attitude is particularly relevant. At the EU summit, the country is pushing asylum regulations and rejects migrants from camp on the EU's external border. Interior Minister Gerhard Karner demands asylum procedures in third countries and robust border protection. It remains to be seen how the discussions in the EU develop and what measures are ultimately decided. "The issue of migration will be an essential point in the political facilities," said a political scientist, "the mood within the population is clear."

sustainable energy for tirol

A third topic that came up was hydropower. Mattle pointed out that Tyrol has been relating to hydropower for over a century. Energy generation and storage are not sustainable for the independence of the country of imported, non -sustainable electricity. The expansion of own power plants should secure energy supply in the long term and support a sustainable economic concept.

Overall, attending HTL students was a successful contribution to political education and showed how important it is that the young generation actively participates in political discussions. The entire event is to be checked on the country's YouTube channel, and the questions of the students reflect the topics that also move all of society.

If you want to learn more about the European approaches to migrant integration, the EU action plan is recommended from 2021 to 2027, which will be involved in the labor market with inclusive education and integration. In addition, the importance of cooperation with various actors in the field of integration and social participation is underlined in order to ensure a comprehensive strategy that also includes medical and psychological support.
