Social and financial education for engagement, entrepreneurship and employment

About the project

The main aim of this project was to support the partnership initiative aimed at promoting innovation in the education of school children, their parents, and teachers and the exchange of experience among the participating partners.

The general objective of the project was to empower children and their parents to become agents of change for themselves and their communities through the development of civic and social competences. The specific objective was to develop a programme of social and financial education for the target groups, test it and prepare its implementation on a large scale in order to develop school children's competences, especially social and entrepreneurial ones.

Achieved results:

• Increased capacity of participating teachers to work with elementary school children aged 6-15, especially those from marginalised ethnic minority groups and communities;
• Parents involved in direct work with target groups in school settings and at home;
• Children and parents empowered to be agents of change through active social and financial entrepreneurship and increased employability;
• Creation of a network of schools using the integrated social and financial education programme at an international level.
