The money week in Finland is called Rahaviikko. During the campaign, many primary, secondary and vocational schools were offered different studying materials. These included themes such as (1) Monday: Economical skills in digital environment (2) Tuesday: Responsible consuming (3) Wednesday: Savings and investment (4) Thursday: Loans, insurance and pensions (5) Friday: Entrepreneurship. Participating schools had the opportunity to discover all these topics by watching lectures, playing games and attending workshops. Money Week resources were made available for teachers and students after GMW, too.
Along with the partners, more than 200 schools with approximately 4,000 students were reached.
The feedback from teachers was positive. In May, partners gathered to discuss how to improve the campaign in the following years.
