Microfinance Opportunities invites you to a one-day training on our new curriculum for youth, Young People: Your Future, Your Money, developed by the Global Financial Education Program (GFEP) as part of our nine-module participatory curriculum package. The workshop will be presented in four chapters: managing money, financial services, financial negotiations, and earning money. Participants will gain insights into GFEP's approach to financial education for youth both in terms of content (topics) and how that content is delivered.
