Climate adaptation in daycare centers

The Federal Ministry for the Environment's funding program to support social institutions promotes climate adaptation concepts such as the installation of sun sails or the construction of water playgrounds. The design of the next funding window is currently being planned.

The Climate Adaptation in Social Facilities programme is aimed at municipalities, non-profit associations as well as organizations and companies that are active in the health and social sectors. For example, hospitals, nursing and retirement homes or hospices, kindergartens, schools, neighborhood centers or refugee and homeless facilities are eligible to apply.


Funding is available for the creation of climate adaptation concepts and their implementation, e.g. green roofs and façades, storage areas for rainwater, shade-providing pavilions, the installation of sun sails or the construction of water playgrounds. However, training and further education programs as well as information campaigns on the topic of climate adaptation, which are aimed at employees as well as the people cared for and their relatives, are also supported.

The first funding window closed on December 15, 2020. Further information on the next application window will be made available in good time on the Zukunft - Umwelt - Gesellschaft (ZUG) gGmbH website. Please visit the following homepage at regular intervals:

At the moment there is no telephone consultation. The project management organization's hotline will be reactivated for the next application window.
