Research results on financial literacy of Roma from six European countries

In the project FINALLY – Financial Literacy for the Rome we published the results of the transnational research in partner countries: Slovenia, Bulgaria, Greece, Italy, Slovakia and Serbia. You can read the transnational report or the reports of each country on http://finally.splet.arnes.si/wp2-needs-research/

By applying uniform methodology we researched in all partner countries what is the knowledge of the Roma in this field. We carried out guided interviews with individual Roma, two focus groups of professionals dealing with Roma issues and important representatives of the Roma community. In addition, by studying different literature we researched how Roma successfully manage their family finances. Based on this research we will develop an educational programme on how to efficiently manage the family finances. It will be accompanied by learning and teaching resources, adapted to the needs of the Roma minority. The programme and learning tools will be tested through pilot actions, improved and published in all languages of the partners at the end of the project.
