"The Helpers of Vienna" Prepare for Everyday Emergencies

Together with emergency and partner organizations, "Die Helfer Wiens" advise and train on the correct behavior in small and large emergencies in everyday life. They provide tips that make one's own life, personal environment, and society safer. As a prevention institution of the City of Vienna, the goal is to best prepare the Viennese for emergencies. The offerings for young and old range from personal advice, free lectures, informational events to the coordination of the platform "Volunteering for Vienna".

This is the Vienna K-Circle

The Vienna Safety Festival is supported by the 41 organizations of the Vienna K-Circle. The K-Circle is a prevention network in the areas of safety, health, environment, and social issues. The "K" stands for disaster relief, disaster protection, communication, and competence.

In 2025, the K-Circle will have 41 members from emergency organizations, municipal companies, departments of the City of Vienna, "friendly" organizations, and associations. Die Helfer Wiens act as a hub in the K-Circle for planning and organizing joint prevention events, demonstrations, lectures, network meetings, and projects like "I Can Save Lives!". For the Viennese population, the "K-Circle" guarantees rapid, highly professional, and top-organized assistance at any time in case of emergency.
