Stuttgart – The Baden-Württemberg state government is funding 28 inclusive projects in the south-west with its “Impulse Inclusion 2021” program. Social and Integration Minister Manfred Lucha (Greens) said on Wednesday in Stuttgart that each of these projects is a building block for inclusive cooperation in the state. A total of around 415,000 euros in funding would be available.

Lucha said, according to his ministry, the need for participation offers for people with disabilities is particularly great under difficult conditions such as the corona pandemic. Inclusion has many facets and can be seen, for example, in sports, in school, in the parish, at cultural events and in club life. This year, one focus of the funded projects was on digital and cultural participation.
