According to the Österreichische Lagergemeinschaft Ravensbrück & FreundInnen (Austrian Camp Community Ravensbrück & Friends), an organization which she co-founded, "She saw herself as a 'persecuted person', not as a 'victim' and considered it an obligation to report on the Nazis and the concentration camp prison in Ravensbrück especially [to] young people."
