Financial literacy refers to a combination of financial awareness, knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behaviours necessary to make sound financial decisions and ultimately achieve individual financial wellbeing.
Low levels of knowledge about financial concepts lead to:
- poor financial decisions
- risky behaviour
Financial illiteracy is more common among low-income individuals.
The combination of these two ideas is the driving force behind this project:
- Financial literacy training for young people, using inclusive methods, to access information, knowledge and financial management tools.
Objectives
- Promoting financial literacy
- Literal financial work as a tool for personal growth
