Hard&Smart: Prevention and Intervention for Safer Nightlife
Welcome to the Hard&Smart programme. Hard&Smart is a prevention and intervention programme focused on the dance, nightlife, and entertainment environment. Its long-term aim is to reduce risks commonly associated with nightlife and music events, while promoting safer and more responsible spaces for visitors, organisers, and venue operators.
The programme addresses a range of key issues linked to this setting, including the use of legal and illegal psychoactive substances, dehydration and overheating, hearing damage, risky sexual behaviour, and getting home safely after an event.
Hard&Smart teams work directly at music and nightlife events, where they provide professional interventions through dedicated chill-out and intervention zones, as well as environmental monitoring. These measures help create a safer and more supportive environment for event attendees.
An important part of the programme is also cooperation with club and venue owners. By working together to improve safety standards and responsible event practices, venues can subsequently receive certification as safer places for nightlife.
In addition to on-site activities, Hard&Smart also communicates with its target groups online, especially through social media, where it shares prevention messages, practical advice, and awareness content related to safer nightlife.
Hard&Smart working groups are based in Prague, Brno, Ostrava, and Olomouc. They bring together professionals in addictology and related services who are interested in working in the nightlife and entertainment environment.
The Hard&Smart programme is also part of an international network of similarly focused initiatives, including Party+ and NewNet.
