Today, financial education is especially low among young adults at risk, that is, young low-skilled adults (18-34 years) without compulsory education. A solid financial training is needed in order to form a critical and informed youth able to understand and make decisions concerning all financial aspects. To face this situation, the FinanceGO Project aims to train educators to be qualified to offer a quality financial education to young adults at risk of social exclusion taking into account their own needs and expectations giving them the opportunity to learn about the importance that Financial Literacy has in their Daily life, and how knowing Financial Literacy can help them to make better decisions for their future. The development of the FinanceGO Guide (O2) and Training Course for educators and volunteers (O3), allow the partner institutions to consolidate a line of work started with the EDUFIN Project (2014 - 2016). Along the whole project, the consortium will organize national Events of dissemination to gather recommendations on Financial Literacy for Adult Education which will allow creating a network of entities and public administrations interested in taking advantage of the European financial education curriculum and the second and third output ensuring the impact on target groups of the project, in this case educators, who will apply them, one of the partners will be responsible of elaborating the Report on the events (O1). The expected results from the FinanceGO project will be linked to the different outputs of the project: Disseminating and exploiting the European curriculum on financial literacy’s contents for young adults at risk, training educators on how to implement financial literacy courses for young adults at risk and giving access successfully to financial literacy to youth at risk. During the closure phase of the project, it will be organized a Multiplier event for disseminating the three outputs generated along the project, with the objective of making them arrive to all organizations and educators as possible which will guarantee their use and its sustainability once the project is over. The FinanceGO Oroject will be organized into four phases: Preparation phase contains all the activities that must be carried out during the first two months of the project, including activities related to management, dissemination and quality. Implementation phase includes the activities related to the achievement of the three main outputs of the project. Follow-up phase ensures that the project reaches to a European level. Closure phase contains mainly the organization of the Multiplier event of the three project outputs. The project consortium will meet on four international meetings and a monthly online meeting. The methodology to develop the present project’s outputs will be Communicative Methodology which is based on the principles of equality, inclusion and relevance of all participants. Voices of educators and young adults at risk will be incorporated on the development of the outputs when discussing about each of them during the National Coordination Committee meetings, which will meet at least 6 times along the project, young adult at risk will be also included to guarantee that their needs are taken into account. Finally, when developing the Training Course, it will be used the Dialogical learning (Flecha, 1997) which claims that learning is produced through equality interactions. In order to guarantee a bigger number of young adults will receive a quality financial education, it is necessary not just training educators but also giving access to the outputs that will be created along this project. That is why all output contents will be available in EPALE in order to be used by other centers interested in how to carry out financial literacy courses to young people at risk of social exclusion.

Along the whole project, the consortium organized national Events (focus groups) to gather recommendations on Financial Literacy for Adult Education, which allowed us to create a network of organizations and public administrations interested in taking advantage of the European financial education curriculum and the FinanceGO Guide for educators on how to carry out Financial Literacy classes for young people at risk of social exclusion (Output 2). A training course was also implemented in Italy and Spain, ensuring the impact on target groups of the project, in this case educators, who will apply them.
