There are more and more people in Vorarlberg who don't have enough money for food. Daniela Brodesser knows all too well what it is like to be poor - she has impressively recorded her experiences in a book.

In the truest sense of the word, it is an indictment of poverty: in Austria, which is actually rich, around twelve percent of the population is affected by food poverty - this was recently revealed in a study by Gesundheit Österreich GmbH. According to Caritas, around 16,000 people in Vorarlberg alone do not have enough money for three full meals a day.
