Child-friendly municipal setting remains intact in Landshut
The city of Landshut, which has held the title of "Child-Friendly Municipality" since August 2022, is set to embark on a new chapter in its commitment to children and young people. Liane Leutner has been appointed to lead the course of the second action plan phase for the "Child-Friendly City Landshut," scheduled to unfold in the coming weeks and months.
In April, the city council unanimously voted to extend the seal and initiate a further implementation phase. The decision on the second action plan is expected to be made by the city council in spring 2026.
The first action plan, implemented over the past three years, has been successful, with measures such as accompanied museum visits and neighborhood walks praised as best practice examples for other municipalities. The new action plan is necessary to build upon these successes and continue to make Landshut a more child-friendly city.
The action plan for this title was developed by the city in collaboration with children and young people. A workshop held at the Old Barracks this week, moderated by Cornelia Scharf, CEO of the Nuremberg Children's Commission, gathered numerous ideas for the new action plan.
Mayor Alexander Putz attended the workshop and praised the work and commitment of the participants. He expressed his excitement for the potential of the collected ideas for further implementations. The new action plan is expected to include up to 15 measures and a focus on giving the youngest residents of Landshut more say in city affairs.
The final report of the three-year implementation phase, including an extension application, will be presented at the end of June. Once the second action plan is approved, it will guide the city's efforts to become even more child and youth-friendly in the coming years.
