The aim of this funding is to expand high-quality educational and care services for children and youth and to promote pedagogical innovations in the fields of education, labor & social affairs, as well as training and further education. Applications for new initiatives must be submitted before the project begins, whereby the ongoing procedure allows for flexible and needs-based project development.
