On 26 January 2021, the NPO Competence Center of the Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration together with SAFE founder Karl-Heinz Brisch invited to the study presentation "Social and economic added value of the SAFE - "Safe Education for Parents" - programme by means of a Social Return on Investment (SROI) analysis".

The study presentation took place via Zoom and more than 90 participants accepted our invitation to the virtual event room. This virtual event made it possible for participants from all over the German-speaking world to attend, which is a clear advantage to a live event.
