Young Factor Europe is a financial and economic education initiative reaching high schools in six countries. The free platform employs a 50-key-word framework over five years, with components including tests, video lessons, current affairs, central bank governor masterclasses, and practical activities. The project's founder and CEO, Andrea Ceccherini, presented the program in Milan to ECB President Christine Lagarde and 600 students.
The initiative aims to equip young people to fully participate in democracy, as explained by Ceccherini. ECB Governor Laura Jeannete commented on the importance of financial literacy, stating it is "particularly dear to me" and "an essential component of freedom, especially for women." The project is in the advanced pilot phase in Italy, Germany, and Spain, and has started in France, the Netherlands, and Portugal.
In Italy, Intesa Sanpaolo, UniCredit, and Crédit Agricole Italia are supporting the program, with Financial Times, The Economist, Wall Street Journal, and Sole 24 Ore resources available for teachers and students through the Doubt and Debate platform.
