Project Aim

The Disfinlit project aim is to respond to the needs of high-quality online tools and platforms by developing a tool that will help disabled youth to develop sustainable financial know-how, make smart and sustainable financial decisions, understand money management, deal with a constantly changing economy, navigate inevitable challenges and take charge of their own financial future

In the kick off meeting of the project several points were addressed by the coordinator and the rest of the partners. IEF is the coordinator of Disfinlit. IEF explained the financial and administrative issues as well as the dissemination plan for the project. Effebi is in charge of the quality and assurance plan and explained to all the partners how the correct evaluation of the project will be made.

Expected Results

• Adapted curriculum and materials for disabled people from existing financial literacy courses paying special attention of sustainable finances

The partnership discussed how to address some points of the project that could maybe be an issue, such as the definition of “disabled”.
