🌍 About the Seminar
The Youth@Work: Boosting Financial Literacy Among Young People Seminar is an international Erasmus+ Training and Cooperation Activity (TCA) that will take place in Istanbul, Türkiye.
The seminar focuses on strengthening the financial literacy competences of youth workers, educators and project managers so they can better support young people in understanding financial management, economic independence and responsible decision-making.
In an increasingly complex economic environment, financial literacy has become a crucial competence for young people’s autonomy, well-being and social inclusion.
