Gesetz über die Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung (BpBG)

This German federal law concerns the Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung (BpBG), the Federal Agency for Civic Education. The agency works to promote public understanding of democracy, political institutions and current political issues, typically through publications, educational events and online materials. The legislative procedure in the Bundestag would set or amend the legal framework governing the agency's mandate, structure and responsibilities. The law primarily affects the agency itself, its staff, and the public that uses its civic education programmes, including schools, teachers, students and adult learners. Because the subject tags also mention political parties, the law may touch on how the agency deals with political parties and public political debate.
