Knowledge Is Power. We promote drug education and the Harm Reduction approach. RaveSafe started in South Africa in 1993 in Johannesburg and Cape Town. We have had this web page up since December 1994. It is modelled on, and draws inspiration from similiar Harm Reduction organisations in Europe.
Local groups promote safe raving and distribute the information.
They strive to have staffed stalls, and sometimes chill rooms, at large Rave parties. Here the literature is available, and they aim to provide a friendly and understanding source of assistance to people who would not be comfortable approaching the authorities for help or advice. RaveSafe volunteers are experienced people who understand the unique situations that arise at parties. Take a look here for contact details for RaveSafe chapters, as well as other similiar organisations. More information on RaveSafe mailing lists here .
