Motivation
Based on our initial research in collaboration with student affairs offices from universities from both Cyprus and Ireland as well as recent Eurobarometer results it is evident that there is a problem regarding financial literacy that needs to be addressed and affect the lives of young adults. In an increasingly complex financial landscape, the ability to make informed and effective money management, investment, and financial planning decisions is critical. However, many young people enter adulthood with little knowledge of personal finance, which often leads to poor financial decisions with long-term consequences.
