Women's Zionist Organization of Austria was established in 1898; in 1920 it became the Austrian branch of the Women’s International Zionist Organization (WIZO). The organization’s primary goals included dissemination of Zionist information, educational work among Jewish women, and fundraising in support of Jewish settlers in Palestine. In the 1930s, the organization was led by Sophie Lőwenherz. The organization had commissions on propaganda, culture, Keren Hanshim (the women’s fund), the Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael fund, Totzeret Haaretz, youth affairs, and kibbutzim, as well as an economics section. There were three regional groups of WIZO in Austria in the 1920s and 1930s.
