Community means everyone should be able to feel well! Public space is for everyone, so we also ask for common solidarity with each other and with the spaces. This is how we create a mindful city where everyone can feel safe.
Therefore, we ask you: Take care of yourselves and others!
– Respect the needs and limits of all.
– Support others and ask if you feel someone may need support.
– If you are unsure whether others want something or not – ask them!
The Awareness Team is mobile and there for you in situations where …
… you feel overwhelmed.
… you don’t want to/can’t intervene somewhere yourself, but feel like someone should.
… you feel uncomfortable for any reason.
… someone discriminates against you or is treating you badly – e.g. is racist, sexually harasses you or is verbally or physically abusive.
If you need support in any situation, contact us!

Additionally, you can get garbage bags, FFP2 masks, info material, water, hygiene products, earplugs or other useful things from us.
The Awareness Teams in public spaces are a group of people who have so far mainly provided support work at parties and in clubs. With the support of the City of Vienna (MA13), the awareness teams can be found at Danube Canal, Karlsplatz, and in the Area of Ring every Friday and Saturday and the days before holidays in the evening until about 4 o’clock in the morning the whole summer.
