Looking for an Austrian definition of the term "Multikulturalismus." Or do Austrians simply use a German dictionary such as "Duden"?

Note this is not an Austria-specific term, but a neologism built from "multikulturell" undergone a standard German nominalisation for loanwords.

The online edition of the official Austrian dictionary does, however, not know it. (And the German Duden doesn't as well, which is quite common for standard nominalisations)

With regards to your title question, you might want to consult this Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Österreichisches_Wörterbuch

Both the Duden and the ÖWB know, however, the original adjective multikulturell with basically identical definitions.
