Konzept

Wohnungslosen App

One map bundles help for homeless people – places to sleep, food, medical care, anonymous and nearby. The same map guides helpers and donors to concrete, local needs.

Our role
Self-initiated
Website: help and concrete needs nearby – for helpers and donors
Starting point

Help exists, but scattered, often outdated and bound to jurisdictions. Homeless people don't stop at city or state borders – the way help is organised does. Whoever needs something urgently too rarely finds it fast enough.

Our solution

The app bundles offers on one map, from two perspectives: for those affected and for people who want to help.

  • App for those affected: places to sleep, food, medical care, showers and drop-in centres nearby
  • Usable anonymously, entirely without a login – only ticket and profile require verification
  • Website for helpers and donors that leads to concrete, local needs
  • Designed to be accessible: fonts like Atkinson Hyperlegible and OpenDyslexic, high contrast, light and dark mode
  • Digital transit-ticket proof as a way to counter criminalisation
The result

A fully designed concept, born from our own initiative. We are currently bringing the app into reality together with partners.
