Prisca

Prisca has been a refugee in Austria since 2002. She was granted refugee status within two weeks of arriving from her home country of Cameroon, and waited two years to bring her young son to join her. But she has since found it difficult to integrate – in particular to find a job that matches her qualifications and experience. This, together with some specific incidents of racism, has led to her feeling isolated from Austrian society. 

“Integration in Austria is defined and limited to the level of learning a language and getting a job, and it doesn’t matter which job.”
