Throughout Global Money Week 2022, Swiss Money Week along with partners reached approximately 870 children and youth through several activities. Peculiarly Swiss Money Week decided not limit itself to children and youth but also reached out directly to approximately 890 adults including teachers, parents, refugees, social workers and other adults. This choice was inspired by the potential of influence that adults have, their roles in relation to children and the youth, respectively among other adults. In total, approximately 1,800 participants took part in more than 30 different activities in the three linguistic regions of Switzerland (Italian, French and German). The activities, both online and in person, were different but mainly consisted in financial education workshops and lectures, financial education games in person (i.e. CiaoCash, FinanceMission, etc.), accessible consulting services, visits to museums (History Museum of Bern), radio shows, TV shows and podcasts. Digital means had an important role in most activities. Furthermore, 23 different media organisations were involved to help raise awareness on financial literacy and extensively cover updates from the Week.
