National Financial Literacy Strategy
The Department of Finance has announced that, as part of the Adult Literacy for Life National Framework Strategy, applications for the 2025 Collaboration and Innovation Fund are now open. This Fund serves as a chance for projects that aim to assist adults with unmet literacy, numeracy, digital and financial needs to be awarded monetary support.
The Consumer and Competition Protection Commission (CCPC) has provided €250,000 to the Fund to help support projects on financial literacy. This funding is available for local and national projects that support innovative and collaborative ways to: improve financial literacy skills for adults with unmet literacy, numeracy and digital literacy needs, and create a more literacy friendly approach to accessing financial services.
Guidelines for the Fund can be found here and the closing date for applications is 5pm Friday 7th February 2025.
