MoS defines a unique art resonance space that exhibits personal stories and objects from contemporary witnesses of war, evacuation and escape who live in Austria. They help shape this space, find the language and create a platform for dealing with their traumatic story.
The aim is to make the individual experiences of war, evacuation and escape tangible for visitors. The perspective is of children and young people – regardless of the place and time of the event.
The consequences of war, evacuation and escape are clearly shown, to increase the awareness of the social relevance. You can develop a deeper understanding, because war, evacuation and escape concern us all!
We promote mutual understanding and empathy on a human and institutional level by sharing knowledge and advocacy.
MoS believes in the strength in people and in strengthening society from within - this is the only way to ensure social change. We fight for sustainable peace and the revitalization of human rights. Every day!

We promote mutual understanding and empathy on a human and institutional level by creating a track record, imparting knowledge, and advocacy.
MoS creates a space for events to be viewed from a child’s perspective and the removal of taboos that have resulted from repression.
MoS defines itself as a limitless art, education, and peace project.
