Learn.Save.Earn

GMW is an annual global event, initiated by Child & Youth Finance International (CYFI), with local and regional events and activities aimed at inspiring children and youth to learn about money, saving, creating livelihoods, gaining employment and becoming an entrepreneur. It is an international week with a number of events, including activities, projects, launches and competitions taking place in over 140 countries. The theme for this year is 'Learn.Save.Earn.':
  • Learn: Educating children and young people about their social and economic rights and responsibilities is key to creating a generation of capable adults who can make wise decisions for their future;
  • Save: It is important for children and youth to build clever savings habits from an early age in order to cultivate key money-managing skills for later in life; and
  • Earn: Developing livelihoods skills or receiving entrepreneurial training supports children and young people with getting a job or building their own business and developing their careers.
