Dr Astrid Rössler – Environmental lawyer, business consultant

I am Dr. Astrid Rössler – an environmental lawyer, business consultant, and passionately committed to sustainable development in Salzburg and beyond. Throughout my career, I have assumed various roles: as an expert, politician, and bridge-builder between people, environmental interests, and future visions.

What drives me is the conviction that changes toward sustainable living can only succeed through dialogue, requiring substantial pressure – well-founded, solution-oriented, and focused on the essentials. On this page, I would like to provide insights into my work, present my professional focus areas, and show what I stand for.

I look forward to your interest and to engaging with you!
