A educação financeira desde o ensino básico

Abstract

The Course Completion Work “Financial Education from Basic Education” presented to the Federal University of Paraíba addresses the importance of including financial education in the Basic Education curriculum. The study highlights how the lack of financial knowledge contributes to the high indebtedness of Brazilian families. With a theoretical analysis based on official documents and relevant studies, the work argues that financial education is essential to form financially conscious and responsible individuals. The TCC emphasizes the need to prepare citizens capable of managing their personal finances, proposing financial education as a means of promoting a more sustainable and economically healthy society.
