How to teach financial literacy through history

In the framework of the financial marathon "On the financial wave" experts continue their tour of the cities and districts of Primorye. This time, on July 7, the financial marathon was held in the central library of the Lesozavodsk municipal district, on July 8 in the assembly hall of the administration of the Dalnerechensky urban district and on July 9 in the central library of the Dalnerechensky urban district, where experts shared valuable knowledge with local residents. The goal of the project is to increase the level of financial literacy of the population and the formation of a sustainable financial culture in the region. Fewer disappointed and deceived, fewer victims of fraud, more opportunities for well-being

Of particular interest to the participants was the intellectual game "First Entrepreneurs of the Primorsky Territory" , developed by the Tourist Information Center of the Primorsky Territory (Visit Primorye). The game is aimed at familiarizing participants with the history of entrepreneurship in the Far East. The game shows how merchants, entrepreneurs and industrialists of the XIX-early XX century developed business, managed finances and created the economic basis of Primorsky Krai. In the format of the popular quiz "My Game", the participants of the event immersed themselves in the history of entrepreneurship of the Far East.

The quiz contains 20 questions dedicated to the first steps of entrepreneurial activity in the Primorsky Territory. We tried to make the game not only fascinating, but also informative, so we divided it into four blocks, each of which is dedicated to a separate topic and has different levels of difficulty, explained Julia Slepkova, an employee of the tourist and information department of the Tourist and Information Center of the Primorsky Territory (Visit Primorye) .

It’s great to have this interactive format. This is not just a lecture, but a real competition where you can test your knowledge and learn new things. Plus excitement, mood. Our team did not win, but received a lot of positive emotions! - shared her impressions Svetlana T. from Dalnerechensk.

"Thank you very much to the organizers for such an active-intellectual format, and for the information content itself.  It was not only fascinating, but also very informative. I didn’t even know there was such a rich history of entrepreneurship. And some stories are quite applicable even today, however, taking into account modern trends, added Marina S. from Dalnerechensk .
