Über uns

Join us for an afternoon of gaming and socializing! Meet new people and explore the world of videogames :)  Play and chat in a warm and safe atmosphere with other like-minded people from the LGBTIQA+ community in Berlin!

Who are we?
-----------------
We are a small community of people who love playing videogames :) Our main goal is to work toward a #SaferSpace for all of us queer gamers to play together and meet like-minded people.

What do we do?
---------------------
We organize monthly events where participants can play, chat and socialize in a relaxed and warm atmosphere. We provide an array of different platforms and gamepads but we encourage everyone to bring their portable equipment and their own controllers.

From time to time we host special events like Videogame Trivia Nights and joint meeting with other like-minded groups.

We also have one or two brainstorming events per year, open to all members, dedicated to shaping the future of our little community. We all contribute together to shaping our group and our events.

Where do we do it?
--------------------------
Our regular events (every 4th saturday of the month at 14:00) are hosted by the Sonntags-club e.V. a counseling, information and communication center for lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgenders and intersexuals located in Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg. Our events take place in the headquarters of the association, in Greifenhagener Straße 28, 10437 Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg. 

Our special events are hosted by the AHA, an association that hosts queer youth groups, cultural and cabaret events, parties and workshops. Our events take place in the main headquarters of the association, in Monumentenstraße 13, 10829 Berlin-Schöneberg.

From time to time we have extra events in different locations, such as the Computerspiele Museum or our annual Pride Month event.

Why do we do it?
-----------------------
We like videogames and we want to share our interest with others. Our main goal is to create a safer and welcoming atmosphere where all members of the queer gaming community can enjoy videogames and socialize.

How do we do it?
-----------------------
No space can ever be 100% safe for all people because everyone's requirements to feel safe are different, so what we aim for is a "safer space". A safer space is a place where people can comfortably participate without fear of being harassed or discriminated against because of their sex, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, cultural background, physical or mental ability.

To build the kind of environment we want, guidelines can be useful: ours can be found in the Code of Conduct (all credits to Jacques for putting it together). We ask all participants to read the CoC before joining any of the events or meetings.

Our events take place mainly in English, but if English is not your preferred language worry not: most of us also speak German and we will be glad to help make things easier :) 

We have a few official organizers but every member of the group is involved in the creation of the event by helping with setup, clean-up, bringing consoles or controllers, organizing tournaments, welcoming new people, etc. Feel free to help out how and when you can!
