1 The practice
2 Hints for an evaluation
2.1 Strenghts and Critical Points
One of the most remarkable aspects of the "STIMME" and the organisation behind it as well is the inter-minoritary thinking. It might seem a little bit confusing and questionable to connect migrant and disabled people’s issues but it proved to be good practise to look at society’s excluding mechanisms in such a holistic way. The idea of alliances has to be appreciated highest. Winning the 8th Radio Award of Adults’ Education in 2005 shows the high quality and appreciation of the work of "Radio STIMME". Alexander Pollak’s contribution to the Republic of Austria’s 60th anniversary in 2005 “Das Gedenk-/Dank-/Gedanken-Jahr 2005” (The year of commemoration/thanks/thoughts 2005) won first prize in the category “interactive/experimental.” (see here and here). Real intercultural practise is not the intention of "Radio STIMME". It serves rather as a basis for intercultural exchange by reflecting existing structures and principles in society like the relations between minorities and majorities.
