The kick-off meeting of the project ProFiLE was held on the 11st – 12nd of November in Cheltenham (United Kingdom). The project is funded by Erasmus+ Programme, KA2 Strategic Partnerships for School Education.

The project involves eight partners from four different countries among which the Centre for Creative Development Danilo Dolci.

All partners have a wide experience in EU projects and training of School Education. Partners met in Chelteham to talk about the project and they agreed on objectives and responsibilities/tasks of the project according to their competencies.

Teachers, parents, guardians, children society leaders and workers need user-friendly yet authentic teaching guides and activities to help young children between the ages of 7 and 11 to understand the notions of money that are deemed age-appropriate.

Among the project outcomes we have:

  • IO1: Financial Literacy Learning Outcomes for the Pedagogy
  • IO2: Financial Literacy Teaching Material
  • IO3: Financial Literacy Learning Tools
  • IO4: Financial Literacy Integration Toolkit
  • IO5: Financial Literacy Research Paper

The ProFiLE project lasts 36 months and it is coordinated by Irene Ippolito on behalf of the Centre for Creative Development “Danilo Dolci”.
