In the academic year 2021/2022, the Student Finance Clinic is implementing an original project entitled 'Financial education for children and young people'.
Money issues are an integral part of every child's life, but in the first years they take the form of observing the behaviour of parents without understanding the specifics of individual payment tools and financial phenomena. As children grow older, they are increasingly influenced by stimuli that distort the value of money and the principles of household budgeting, such as through the impact of advertising messages. The role of the family (primary socialisation) in terms of children's financial literacy is often insufficient, and additional measures are needed to shape some of the most important life skills to ensure the future financial security of the young generation. Therefore, the Student Finance Clinic meets these needs and has created a financial education project aimed at pre-school, school and high school children, with the aim of shaping children's correct attitudes in terms of managing a budget, recognising the value of money or saving, according to the age of the participants. The project will involve:
- Pupils of the High School of the University of Lodz,
- Pupils of the Prince Józef Poniatowski Social Primary School of the Education Society in Łódź and the Wojska Polskiego Primary School No. 139 in Łódź,
- Kindergarten pupils attending.
