It was this journey of exile that gave rise to her political engagement. Now aged 40, Ahmad is a member of the Social Democratic Party of Austria and the mayor of the 9th district of Vienna. She dreams of a European Union that encourages more solidarity in the future, especially towards women and refugees.
