European Union, as well as the whole world, is in a very difficult economic situation. Almost all countries have to cope with the crises and their citizens have to deal with a new, demanding, financially difficult situation. Additionally, the societies of Europe are facing another problems; aging of the society, increasing number of people ending education very early in their lives, reducing provisions by the State and employers. On the other hand young people have to deal with this financially difficult situation and the are not prepare to it, schools don’t take the financial education much in consideration. The majority of people have a serious lack of knowledge about planning their finances and about the financial matters. The necessity of financial education is becoming more and more obvious in all European countries as living in the circumstances of globalization, ICT growth and overwhelming inflow of new, completely innovative goods becomes more and more demanding for customers. The financial goods are changing and a variety of new products is introduced on the market every month, every week or even every day. People have to deal with debt traps, banks have a variety of offers for customers which are so complicated that without any knowledge about finances we risk losing our money. The project is based on needs analysis in partner's countries and is suitable for different fields - is cross fields as
nobody can be completely up to date with the financial matters and the people 50+, are in the worst position as for them, born more than 50 years ago that flow of modern technologies is very difficult to follow. They feel confused and often lost in innovations. They have never been taught how to manage their finances, how to calculate their pension, how to economize. The situation is also difficult when taking into account young people and students.
