Healthcare and elder care will get €7.5 million, while youth programs and inclusion efforts will benefit from €10 million. The Alpine Academy has secured €280,000 to create sustainable educational programs. Meanwhile, the Oberammergau Passion Play, a world-renowned event, will receive €110,000 for a dedicated study.
