FINANCIAL EDUCATION A TOOL FOR INCLUSION IN THE EDUCATION OF YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULTS FOR BUILDING A SECURE FUTURE: A LITERATURE REVIEW

Abstract

As people have difficulties managing their finances, family indebtedness has been increasing and this has a negative impact on financial health. Thus, financial education is an extremely useful resource, especially for students of the Young and Adult Education (EJA) modality who are already inserted in the labor market. This research aims to demonstrate the importance of financial education for EJA students, aiming to improve their quality of life and understanding of issues related to personal and professional finances. This qualitative research seeks to provide students and the school community with appropriate methods for reflection and learning about the concept of Financial Education, with a focus on EJA students.
