- Platform Zero
Platform Zero was a financially supported volunteer project near Rotterdam Central Station providing aid and shelter to drug addicts and homeless people. After its foundation in 1987, the Platform grew into an international open drug scene. Eventually the increasing number of visitors and criminality led to the closure of the platform in 1994.

AUTONOMOUS CULTURE WORKSHOP/WORKCITY, TOORICHde »AUTONOME KULTURWERKSTADT WOHLGROTH, ZUREICH«
In this leaflet, the squatters of the Autonome Kulturwerkstad(t)t Wohlgroth look back on the two and a half years since the occupation. Among other things, they discuss the closure of the consumption room, the sleep-in for drug consumers, and the women's emergency shelter. It is not their job, they say, "to solve the social problems of the city." Since the closure, "dealing and consumption of hard drugs are no longer tolerated. But that doesn't mean, of course, that we exclude junkies on principle."

The stuff dreams are made ofde »Der Stoff, aus dem die Träume sind«
The leaflet informs about a "pause for reflection" during which the women's emergency shelter and the sanitary room (consumption room) in the occupied Wohlgroth factory are to remain closed. The reason is problems with drug use and dealing; the "open drug scene" at Platzspitz is only a few hundred metres away from the Wohlgroth.
