The Edufinet Project on financial education, promoted by Unicaja and Fundación Unicaja, is once again participating in a new edition of Global Money Week, a worldwide initiative promoted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), with the aim of promoting financial education among young people. This year it will be held from 18 to 24 March, under the slogan 'Protect your money, secure your future', with a wide range of activities centered on cybersecurity.

 

To this end, Edufinet has designed a full program of educational activities, ranging from the online dissemination of multimedia training content to an in-person session on cybersecurity.

 

Specifically, the Edufinet Project will offer next Tuesday, 19 March, a conference on cybersecurity to Secondary and Baccalaureate students of the IES Mediterráneo in Málaga, which will take place in its own Financial Education Center in Malaga. In addition, this talk will be broadcast live via streaming, so that it can be followed in other schools and universities with which Edufinet collaborates.

 

Among other activities, the members of the Edufinet team have developed a wide variety of educational resources in online format to disseminate different concepts on security in digital transactions of various types. These include the dissemination of short videos, as well as webinars, on their social media profiles and on their website (www.edufinet.com), which address a variety of topics, such as the prevention of cybercrime or the use of cryptocurrencies and their risks.

 

Edufinet and Global Money Week

 

Edufinet will once again be present at Global Money Week, which this year reaches its twelfth edition, under the slogan 'Protect your money, secure your future'. This is a global campaign organized annually by the OECD to raise awareness of the importance of basic financial literacy and to ensure that young people, from an early age, acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to make sound financial decisions throughout their lives.

 

With nearly two decades of experience, the Edufinet Project is one of the pioneering financial education programs in Spain and currently has the collaboration of a dozen institutions and business organizations, as well as 17 universities.

 

This program has been operating since the end of 2007 through an Internet portal aimed at all kinds of audiences, although it began to be developed in 2005. Its website offers a wide variety of content, with practical and educational information on the financial world, which can be consulted through different sections (Edufinext, Edufiemp, Edufitech, Edufiblog, Edufisport, Edufiagro and Edufiacademics). It also has a channel on YouTube, as well as accounts on the social networks Facebook, X and LinkedIN.

 

Since it was launched, almost 260,000 people have participated in the various seminars, workshops, courses and conferences it has organized. In fact, its web pages have accumulated more than 20 million visits to date, with access from almost 180 countries.

 

The Edufinet Project is one of the most active agents in the fields of financial education and inclusion in our country, whose work has been recognized throughout this time with various awards, including several distinctions in the CECA Social Work and Financial Education Awards.
