Integration projects; application for funding in the area of values education

The Bavarian State Ministry of the Interior, Sport and Integration promotes the integration of immigrants with a series of projects to teach values, including the "Living in Bavaria" and "Reality of Life in Bavaria" course series.

Description

Successful integration is a key success factor for social cohesion and peaceful coexistence in Bavaria. In addition to the German language and integration into training and work, the teaching of values is a key factor in integration, which is why the Free State of Bavaria promotes the implementation of a wide range of programs in this area.

Purpose

The purpose of the funding is to bring immigrants closer to our values and culture and to make them understand them so that they can find their way better in everyday life and in our society. The teaching of values includes the fundamentals of our legal and value system such as understanding democracy, equal rights and tolerance, strengthening the acceptance of these fundamental values and rules and imparting knowledge about our culture. Intercultural and interreligious encounters and exchanges are intended to strengthen mutual understanding and social coexistence. At the same time, the aim of the funding is to make it easier for new immigrants to settle into society with practical help and to show them opportunities to participate in society.

Object

Funding is provided for the project-related implementation of value education programs. This includes courses, workshops, exchange meetings and further training. The offers should include both knowledge transfer and practical forms of participation.

Recipients of funding

Funding recipients are all legally responsible organizations that have the necessary reliability and capacity to carry out the project and whose previous activities are expected to achieve the funding purpose.

Eligible expenditure

Project-related personnel and material expenses within the scope of the funding purpose are eligible for funding. The amount of personnel expenses eligible for funding is based on the maximum rates for personnel expenses published by the Bavarian Ministry of Finance.

Type and amount

The grant is awarded as partial funding within the framework of project funding up to a maximum of 90% of the eligible expenditure. State funding requires a contribution by the grant recipient of at least 10% of the eligible project expenditure.

Funding is provided without legal entitlement within the scope of available budget funds.

Prerequisites

In addition to observing the above-mentioned requirements and the information on the procedure, the other requirements can be found in detail in the "Funding cornerstones for value projects" (see "Legal basis").
