Today, people will walk for refugees in Vienna - it is the "Walk of Fame of Humanity"; 40.000 people are expected (via)*. In the afternoon, the concert "Voices for Refugees" will start with a great many European musicians, mostly from Austria, Germany, and Italy. In the evening, Austria's president Heinz Fischer will hold a speech - another voice for refugees.

*Update at 10 p.m.: More than 120.000 people are participating.
