Financial education
Also known as financial literacy. Projects that provide basic skills in personal finance, financial entrepreneurship and minimise financial exclusion. As an element that clearly promotes a society with financial skills and facilitates the adoption of personal financial decisions, empowering citizens and reducing episodes of financial fragility due to over-indebtedness, lack of savings and disorders related to personal and family budget management.
