Pancakes & Pubquiz (15.01)
Our next event will take place on January 15th!
This time, you can look forward to both a pub quiz and delicious pancakes! We’ll meet at 7:00 PM in EB104. You can find the location on the 2nd floor of the EB building. So bring your friends and crushes – we’re excited to see you!
Accessibility:
There will be an awareness team on-site (concept available on the website). EB104 is accessible by elevator, and there are accessible toilets in the building. Near EB104, there are formerly gendered toilets where the signs have been removed. In the neighboring building, there is a gender-neutral toilet. The pub quiz will take place in German, but we can provide whispered English translations. Please let us know in advance if you have any allergies or intolerances to certain pancake ingredients. Please only come to the meeting if you have no symptoms of covid. Please do a covid-test at home (If you forget, we will have some at the Event).
Awareness:
As the Queer Department of the AStA TUB, we want to offer events for queer people at the TU. It is particularly important to us that all people feel comfortable at our events. We do not accept discriminatory behavior, including anti-queer and trans*, racist, antisemitic, classist and ableist behavior. It is important to us that all people who need help see us as a point of contact and that we respond appropriately to incidents.
In order to achieve this, we provide an awareness team at all events that can be recognized by pink high-visibility vests. We do our best to design the awareness team in such a way that everyone feels safe to approach them. The awareness team can also be reached by phone and via Whatsapp, Telegram and Signal (+49 1575 4695822) at larger/more chaotic events. The best way to reach us afterwards is via our email (queer@asta.tu-berlin.de).
The awareness team actively approaches people who it perceives as disruptive or who appear to be in need of support. The person in need of help has the right to decide how the awareness team intervenes. In certain serious cases, however, we feel compelled to step in.
There is an awareness room or area at all events. In the Zwille this is directly in the building, in EB104 you have to walk a few minutes to the room of our Collective. People in need may use this room to calm down and recover. There we provide a blanket, water, stimming toys, food, tea, and a first aid kit.
We do not want drugs to be consumed at our events. Alcohol in reasonable quantities is the only exception. Smoking is generally only permitted outside, sometimes in certain smoking areas outside.
We reserve the right to expel people who behave unacceptably from the event.
If you have any questions about our concept, please send us an email or speak to us in person.
