San Lorenzo Introduces Financial Education Program for Teens

San Lorenzo councilor Gustavo Oggero has proposed a Municipal Financial Education Program targeting high school students and adolescents. The program aims to equip young people with essential money management skills. It addresses the growing need for financial literacy in a world increasingly influenced by personal economic decisions. The program will feature workshops and activities using educational resources. These resources will help young people make informed decisions about financial products and services. It also promotes values like honesty and responsibility in handling money. The initiative responds to the rise of unreliable financial content on social media. The program seeks to protect youth from scams and misinformation. It aims to provide a solid understanding of the financial system. It also educates about investment risks and fraudulent schemes. The program will involve collaboration between the Municipality, schools, financial professionals, and consumer protection agencies. The goal is to provide unbiased and reliable education.
