Due to the high demand for childcare places and the increased requirements in terms of space and equipment, there is a high need for funding in daycare facilities and childcare.
This investment will fund the creation of new childcare facilities and the refurbishment of existing facilities. In total 90,000 additional childcare places will be created.
The target groups are providers of childcare facilities and daycare services (Länder, municipalities and other providers) who implement measures to expand daycare, i.e. to create and/or equip additional places for children up to the age of school entry, and who are dependent on financial support to achieve their goals. The target group also includes the families whose children benefit from the additional childcare places that are equipped to meet their needs.
The implementation responsibility for the use of this financial assistance lies with the federal states. These have each drawn up specific (funding) guidelines that regulate the application, approval and use of the funds in detail.
