Events
SMART Berlin’s space in Neukölln is not just a counselling centre for clients or an office for employees, but also a community and event space where our communities can meet, connect and support each other. We have both regular and one-off events in our programme. Some of our events are aimed at a gender- or profession-specific audience (e.g. cis and trans male, non-binary and trans female sex workers). Some events are open to the general public. It is best to inform yourself about the respective events by checking the notes in the announcement.
If you also want to hold an event on the topic of sex work, feel free to contact us with further details.

A warm space, a full plate, a listening ear. Once a month, SMART Berlin warmly invites you to come together and share a meal in Schöneweider Straße in Neukölln.
