Save today for safe tomorrow

V lete sme dostali príležitosť zúčastniť sa mládežníckej výmeny s názvom 'Save Today for Safe Tomorrows' v ázijskej časti Istanbulu. Projekt bol zameraný na finančnú gramotnosť a hlavným cieľom bolo naučiť sa vysporiadať s finančnými krízami a s rôznymi výzvami, s ktorými môžeme čeliť v rámci našej ekonomickej situácie.

Do projektu boli zapojení účastníci zo Slovenska, Bulharska, Rumunska, Maďarska a Turecka. V skupinách sme diskutovali o dôležitých termínoch súvisiacich s ekonomikou, vyskúšali sme si plánovanie rozpočtu a taktiež sme si navzájom prezentovali našu kultúru a tradície.

Okrem programu sme mali taktiež možnosť spoznať ázijskú aj európsku časť Istanbulu, stretli sme skvelých ľudí, navštívili sme krásne miesta a celý projekt sme si naozaj užili. Bola to úžasná skúsenosť a určite by sme sa Erasmus+ projektu radi zúčastnili aj v budúcnosti. 🙂

Save Today for Safe Tomorrows aims to fill the gap in the financial literacy area by designing tailor made trainings in parallel with the needs of the young people and providing a pilot training to the participants. Today, whole society became a consumption society and are not aware of the dangers of overconsuming/spending.

EU and COVID-19 crises showed whole world that impact of financial crises are becoming greater. Since there is not any kind of financial literacy trainings/methodology given in schools, young people who are affected the most, may not know how to react during the economic crisis period and how to prepare/adapt themselves to it. Therefore, our project will fill this gap by providing proper training to the young people. Even though it is mostly ignored, social and economic problems are interrelated.Tackling only one problem will not have full impact on the disadvantaged people. By this training, young people and the participating organizations in the area will be able to tackle with the economic issues that disadvantaged youth faces.
