Love and money. Two subjects adults avoid. Yet we expect teenagers to figure both out on their own.
Teenagers are shaping their beliefs about relationships and money right now. They are observing how adults handle debt, school fees, status, pressure and survival. If we do not guide them intentionally, we leave their future decision making to chance.
Global research from institutions like the OECD shows that early financial education improves long term financial behaviour. Organisations such as UNICEF highlight how financial stress affects young people’s emotional wellbeing. Money and relationships influence each other.
At Mjojo Finance Play, we use theatre based learning to create safe, relatable conversations about money, values and responsibility. The aim is simple. Build confident, self aware decision makers before adulthood.
If you are a school leader, youth organisation, campus structure or corporate CSI manager interested in bringing the Love and Finances programme to your learners, connect with me on LinkedIn or email [email protected].
Let us equip them early. Prevention is more powerful than repair.
