Programme of the Austrian OSCE Chairmanship for presentation to participating States

As the OSCE Chairmanship in 2017, Austria has an opportunity to contribute to restoring stability and confidence throughout this region. It intends to address three central challenges to security and stability in the OSCE area, which threaten our common values: the military confrontations that have caused thousands of victims, displacement and destruction; the increasing threat to internal security through growing radicalization, particularly of young persons, and terrorism in its wake; and the increasing loss of confidence between States and also by citizens towards State institutions and organizations that are meant to safeguard peace and our values.
