What We Do
Awareness Teams
Our trained volunteers are present at clubs and events across Berlin, offering easily accessible, nonjudgmental support to people affected by sexualized violence, discrimination, conflicts or substance-related health issues. We hold space, provide assistance & first aid, and help connect people to further support if needed.
We work with the following collectives to help realize safe and inclusive events:
Workshop & Trainings
We run practical workshops on awareness, consent, safer spaces, and de-escalation. These are designed for a range of settings—including workplaces, nightlife venues, and community spaces.
Whether for a team, a collective, or a club, our approach is collaborative and focused on building shared understanding and accountability.
We have delivered workshops for the following organizations that support Queer Mamas work:
