About the project

The main objective of MAYFIN is to develop a set of solutions in order to close the gap on financial literacy skills among young people (between the ages 15 and 18) with different levels of socioeconomic conditions. While contributing to the reinforcement of the European identity MAYFIN combines the knowledge of financial literacy along with other identified soft skills.

The aim of MAYFIN is to increase key competences of disadvantaged young people through an online game that allows them to gain the necessary information. As a result, their present and future financial actions can be based and supported by relevant knowledge. The outcomes of MAYFIN are intended to develop the learners’ mindset so that they may actively engage and trust in their own financial decisions throughout their school years as well as during their future adulthood.

While tackling the gap in the financial literacy, MAYFIN will also include a deep research and elements, on the online game, that identify key historical events that impacted the different countries mindset and financial skills development. This will support a deeper understanding of the European culture, contributing to the reinforcement of an European identity within the target groups. Through the combination of financial literacy contents frame  worked by historical events, the target group will be able to develop a better understanding of the European culture while partners will be able to develop results adjusted to the countries framework.
