Deutsche Liga für das Kind e.V.

• Political Advocacy: The Liga works to incorporate children's rights into the Basic Law and advocates for the right to vote from birth. It promotes the quality expansion of early day care and fights against child and family poverty[3].
• Professional Journal "Early Childhood": The Liga publishes a professional journal six times a year, which serves as an interdisciplinary forum for professionals from educational, medical, and psychosocial fields. The journal addresses topics such as birth, pediatrics, child psychiatry, childhood education, and youth welfare[5].
• Workshops and Projects: The Liga regularly initiates workshops and projects, such as the "Kindergarten Plus" program, which promotes the social and emotional skills of four- to five-year-old children in daycare centers. This program is implemented nationwide in over 1,620 daycare centers[3].
• Information Dissemination: The Liga informs parents, daycare centers, and the public about the needs and rights of children through brochures, films, and pamphlets[3].

• Implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child: The Liga is intensively committed to the implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child in Germany. An example of this is the participation in the development of the new Brandenburg Education Plan, which sets children's rights as the basis for child rights-based educational programs[2].
• Combating Child Poverty: Another central concern is the fight against child and family poverty to ensure that all children have equal developmental opportunities[3].
• Promotion of Mental Health: The Liga advocates for the promotion of mental health and the strengthening of personality development in families and daycare centers[3].

Thus, the Deutsche Liga für das Kind is an important player in promoting child welfare and enforcing children's rights in Germany, and its work has already led to numerous positive changes in legislation and practice.
