Federal government: With delay: Digital pact 2.0 to start on September 1st
The traffic light government already wanted to continue the first digital pact. But it wasn't until now that all federal states have signed the multi-billion euro agreement.
Germany's Digital Pact 2.0 for digital education in schools is set to start on September 1, the Federal Ministry of Education announced. All federal states have now signed the administrative agreement, allowing the federal government to disburse funds. The pact provides €5 billion over five years to upgrade digital infrastructure in schools, with the federal government and states sharing the costs equally.
Schools can now apply for funding to improve their digital infrastructure, including networks, servers, and digital equipment.
