Kontaktepool Sprachencafé

Space for meeting through language was to be created; space for Viennese since birth and for new-comer Viennese, no matter from what social background, whether old or young, woman or man; without any pressure to consume, and of easy access. Realisation has more than succeeded. The language café is an open space which at the same time provides a comfortingly secure framework. It is meant for practicing a language and for getting to know people who were hitherto strangers. It is a part of Vienna that shows how diverse Vienna is, not only in terms of languages. So simple, so successful, so innovative! Let us hope that soon there will be more such spaces. It is far more than the German language that is at stake.
