People working together

The Academy of Entrepreneurship proudly participates in Fin4Good, a new Erasmus+ project that aims to transform higher education in microfinance and the social economy. The project introduces an integrated educational framework combining innovative teaching methods, gamified learning tools, and intercultural collaboration to enhance the quality and relevance of education across Europe.

Fin4Good responds to the growing need for financial literacy and social economy education, addressing existing gaps in higher education curricula and empowering students to become active contributors to sustainable economic development and social inclusion.

Project objectives

The Fin4Good project seeks to:

➡ Develop an innovative educational curriculum through gamified learning platforms and serious games in microfinance and social economy tailored to modern challenges.

➡ Enhance knowledge exchange among European universities, educators, and students through collaborative networks.

➡ Promote sustainability, civic engagement, and ethical practices in financial and economic education.

➡ Empower marginalized groups by improving access to quality education and opportunities in the social economy sector. 

Key Activities

To achieve these objectives, Fin4Good will implement a set of interconnected actions:

➡ Design and pilot a comprehensive curriculum focused on applied microfinance and social entrepreneurship.

➡ Develop a gamified e-learning platform and interactive educational tools to make learning more engaging and accessible.

➡ Organize a Virtual Summer Program, bringing together students and educators from various European countries for interdisciplinary collaboration.
