Millennium Fellowship Project: EDUFIN
EDUFIN is an acronym stemming from "educacion financiera", which means finnancial education in spanish. The project's main objective is to tackle the lack of finnancial knowledge in the youth. This will be achieved by creating a web page that contains basic and useful finnancial knowledge by age group. This is for the initial stage of EDUFIN.
For the more long-terms goals of EDUFIN, we plan on expanding the possibilty of including senior citizens/elderly people, as well as giving proposals to the ministry of education to include financial education on the curriculum of school students, as well as spreading the importance of finnancial education to the public.
