Mütterrente

About This Trend

Mütterrente is a German social policy aimed at recognizing the contributions of mothers through additional pension benefits for childcare, particularly for children born before 1992.

The policy is currently trending due to ongoing debates about its expansion and implementation timeline. The coalition has agreed to expand the program earlier than planned, with discussions focusing on whether it will start in 2027 or 2028, amid pushback from the pension fund.
