Keeping Berlin's Club Scene Safe: "Party Smart" Cards Distribution by Police and District Office
Advisory Cards Dispensed by Police to Enhance Safety in Social Gathering Locales - Law enforcement agencies are handing out safety tips at polling stations during election parties
Ready to hit the dance floor this summer in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Berlin's pulsating heart of nightlife? The local police and district office have teamed up to make your party nights safer than ever with the "Party Smart in Berlin" project!
This project focuses on providing vital info on crime, drugs, and sexual health to partygoers. Starting this weekend, police officers and district workers will be out late in the party zones, handing out sleek, credit card-style info-cards.
Scanning the two QR codes on these cards will lead you to helpful resources: one connects you with the cops, while the other takes you to the district office's site for more detailed information.
Worried about the sudden surge of partygoers? Worry not! This project tackles major concerns in nightlife such as preparation, drug use, health, mental health, anti-discrimination, and more. Here's what you can expect:
- Preparation: They encourage party people to plan ahead and focus on safe travel options, like knowing how to get home and having a designated meeting spot if you’re separated.
- Drug Use: They offer advice on safer drug practices to minimize health risks that can come with substance consumption.
- Health and Sexual Health: They promote overall health and sexual well-being throughout the night, providing valuable guidance in these areas.
- Mental Health: Recognizing that emotional stability is crucial, they address mental health issues that could arise during or after partying.
- Anti-Discrimination: Committed to fostering an inclusive environment, they strive to combat discrimination and create a welcoming atmosphere for all partygoers.
While specific implementation details and outcomes of this initiative aren't public knowledge, it's all part of a comprehensive effort to maintain Berlin's nightlife as both exhilarating and secure. Have a blast, stay safe, and party smart, Berlin!
