At @UN in New York I joined #ICBA/@icacoop Symposium on Cooperative Financial Institutions.
My key message: inclusive finance must also invest in the next generation, building young people’s financial capability, agency & trust.

Financial education does not stop with the person who receives it. It travels. A conversation with @VeronicaFrisan1 on her research showing that school-based financial education has meaningful spillover effects on parents. Watch it here. 📷
Closing the 4-day training, our Senior Programmes Officer, Lelly Amunyela, encouraged participants to use the information and put the knowledge they learnt in practice to build sustainable businesses.
🚀 Participants were awarded certificates of attendance. 🙌🏾

Thank you @Dr_AnnaLusardi for the excellent exchange. Lasting progress in financial literacy comes through national integration into education systems, supported by long-term partnerships and teacher capacity building.
Together, we can change the statistics.

A conversation with @Monasch, CEO of @Aflatoun, on what long-term commitment to financial literacy actually looks like. Roeland is a member of the @wef 's Global Future Council on Financial Education. I'm confident that, by working together, we can change the statistics about financial literacy!

Ecuador is moving forward on #FinancialEducation. This week, Parliament approved a new law making it mandatory in schools. In Quito, @Aflatoun supports Training of Trainers with 30+ institutions. Reform happens when teachers are empowered. #SDG4#SDG8

Global Money Week’in ardından düzenlenen bölgesel paylaşım buluşmasında, paydaşımız @Aflatoun International çatısı altında iyi örneğimizi uluslararası paydaşlarla buluşturduk.
Türkiye’den ÖRAV olarak, Zübeyde Porsuk öğretmenimizin 5 Taş Sosyal ve Finansal Liderlik Programı kapsamındaki deneyimini paylaşmanın mutluluğunu yaşadık.
Hatay Dörtyol’dan doğan “Üreten Eller Paylaşan Yürekler” hikayesi katılımcılardan büyük ilgi gördü. Öğrencilerle birlikte ortaya çıkan kitap ise ilham verici bir örnek olarak öne çıktı.
Kurucumuz ve daimi destekçimiz @GarantiBBVA’nın katkılarıyla 2016 yılından bu yana 5 Taş Sosyal ve Finansal Liderlik Programı’nı öğretmenler ve öğrencilerle buluşturmaya, eğitimin dönüştürücü gücüne birlikte tanıklık etmeye devam ediyoruz. 🌱
