ITH Conferences
A main activity of the ITH is the planning and organizing of annual conferences and the publication of selected conference papers. Conference languages are English and German. International speakers are invited to present papers on the topic of the conference.
For the planning and organizing of these conferences the ITH receives regular financial support from various institutions, such as the Chamber of Labour (AK) Vienna and Upper Austria, the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung, the Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung and the City of Linz.
