Pregnancy, Maternity – Legal aspects

The webinar aims to provide detailed information about the legal aspects of pregnancy and maternity and answer the questions of the individual participant.

Being pregnant and having a family in a foreign country is often a challenge. Getting to know the system and the appropriate administrative process you need to follow, exercising your rights and ensuring your children get the best they can when you don’t speak German at all or well enough contributes to that. To tackle this issue and help families with a migrant background, Austria for beginners is starting its new project – Educational seminars about the legal and practical aspects of parenting in Austria.
