Forthcoming events include the formal launch of the Programme which will take place in January 2007 and a National Financial Literacy Survey also scheduled to begin in January
The launch is intended to create greater public awareness of the National Financial Literacy Programme, encourage participation of the general public in the activities which will be hosted by the secretariat and committees such as the surveys, debates, music, games, discussions, community outreach programmes, competitions and lectures that we plan to have.
The survey questionnaires will be geared toward gathering information critical for the Secretariat and the Management Committee of the Programme to execute our plans. Since every group is unique, different groups will need to be reached and communicated to in different ways. The survey will allow us to determine the needs of the various target groups in terms of their need for increased financial literacy, allowing us to better serve those who need the service the most.
