Sustainable Financial Literacy for youth disabled

Description

<< Background >>The right of all learners, to have access to a high-quality inclusive education, is one that is widely acknowledged in a number of international human rights frameworks. In particular, the UNESCO Salamanca Statement of 1994 and UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities of 2006 (UN CRPD) both strongly endorse the right persons with disabilities have to inclusive education. In the European Union, all 28 Member States have signed the UN CRPD since its adoption, committing themselves to implement the necessary changes at all levels to achieve inclusive education. Despite this commitment, there is no single country in Europe, or across the world, who can boast truly inclusive education systems for all learners at all levels. The project idea start in the FOCUS GROUP of SFINLIT project, when we invite to it representants of dissabled people training between first and secondary school and adapted vocational training, also in company training in especial work centers. We realised that this target group received adapted finantial literacy education and we are also futur subjects of sustainable finances training. The aim of the proposal is to develop sustainable financial literacy skills for youth disabled .The project intends to introduce financial decision making not only from an economic perspective but also considering extra-financial aspects (social, environmental and good governance). These financial decisions have evolved together with social norms and values. Inequalities, negative externalities, poor corporate governance practices, as well as environmental impacts and climate changes as a result of business activity, have led to ESG (Environmental Social and corporate Governance) aspects being considered in the different processes related to finance. Regarding this priorites, EASPD (European Association of Service providers for persons with disabilities), in the summary report of 2020, displays the fact that inclusive education is as of yet not the reality for most learners with disabilities, and despite generally upholding the right to equal access to inclusive education, in many of the countries surveyed, current statutory legislation does not facilitate the accommodation of the individual learner’s support needs. Hence this proposal will take into account one of priorities of the Erasmus + Programme, Inclusion and Diversity, in order to provide equal access to inclusive education. The DisFinLit is a project placed in school sector because is at this moment when the early intervention help our target group to undersatnd how important are the sustainable finances for thier future, we involve secondary schools but no directly, trough their providers of financial education and training as IEF, EURODIMENSIONS and EFFEBI, includes the association of especial employment centers who are resposible of the most important number of labor inclusions, at nacional level, of disabled youth when they leaves school, who know well the lacks in financial competencies for work and life of this target group, an certifify organization, ACEEU who ensure the ECVET dimension of our project results and DFW2W non profit organization expert in developing of projects related with social and labor inclusion of disadvantage groups, they are experts in active European employment policies aimed at young people with disabilities, which is our framework of action since this target group goes directly from secondary school to employment. All of them in collaboratively work with the associated partners represent the whole cycle of formal education and training from secondary school to initial VET and to Continuing VET at the companies. The diversity of education and VET providers, including experts in finantial literacy allows DisFinLit to cover the range of ages from 12 to 18.<< Objectives >>The purpose of our project is to respond to this rapidly rising need of high-quality online tools and platforms by developing a tool with pedagogically sound approach that helps youth disabled 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. All project will take part to develop ways to ensure they can benefit from high-quality education in an inclusive setting, where special needs are taken into consideration and pupils do not face discrimination arising from their disability. And, develop an accessible material for everyone that favors learning in sustainable finance education contributing to an improvement in this area, such as in their personal finances in the next future under green deal framework.<< Implementation >>The main activities of the project are : 1.
