Participation in the 2022 survey of directors/ pedagogical staff of day-care centres 2022
The day-care centres selected to participate in this year's study are a random sample of all day-care centres in Germany. Such random selection ensures that the survey results are valid for the target population of day-care centres in Germany without relying on the participation of all day-care centres.
If your day-care centre has been selected for participation, you will be informed by the infas Institute.
Incentive for survey participation:
With the invitation to participate, the day-care centres receive seed bags with various herb and vegetable seeds. All participating facilities will also receive a "Mini-Garden Starter Set" for the garden, windowsill or balcony as a small thank you.
The set contains a variety of additional herb and vegetable seeds as well as growing soil and a wooden seed tray. It is produced by the Leipzig-based start-up "OwnGrown" with the support of the workshop for people with a disability of the Christian Social Work "St. Michael" in Leipzig/Meusdorf.
