Germany’s Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL) was recently tasked with the responsibility of overseeing adult-use model project applications. The announcement cleared the way for entities in Germany to start submitting applications for scientific model projects on the legal distribution of recreational cannabis.
The German Cannabis Industry Association (BvCW) called on interested universities and companies to submit applications “as soon as possible” in its newsletter this week. BvCW is pointing interested entities to BMEL’s website to learn more about how to apply.
According to BvCW, the following German municipalities have expressed interest in launching cannabis model projects:
- Freiburg
- Munich
- State of Berlin
- Pankow
- Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf
- Lichtenberg
- Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg
