Schools promote financial literacy
In an effort to promote financial literacy to students in primary and secondary schools, the National Bank of Cambodia and the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport on February 28 officially launched the “Let’s Talk Money” comic book. The comic book will be additional reading for students aged eight to 12 years old. It is designed based on the educational message from the Let’s Talk Money Campaign, which encourages Cambodians to speak with their family and friends about important money matters. It took a year to design “Let’s Talk Money” in partnership with the charity Good Return. Technical assistance for the comic book was from development partners such as World Education Cambodia.
