To date more than 250 events connected with marginal or underprivileged groups have been staged here, including lectures on social studies topics (theory of handicap, social groups such as young people, women, homosexuals, homeless people), exhibitions, information activities, evening socials, film screenings and evenings for volunteers. The YHD Association strives for a change in the position of handicapped persons (and thus also of other marginal groups, for emancipation can only be universal). Handicap is understood as a concept, not just a substitute for the term disability. Klub SOT 24,5 is an outlet for activities, actions and projects aimed at changing positions, rights and responsibilities and above all upholding the right to be different.
