Digital Financial Literacy for Inclusion and Economic Resilience

2025 – 2026

In today’s digital economy, digital financial literacy is fundamental to economic participation, business growth, and personal financial stability. The World Economic Forum (2020) emphasizes that financial literacy empowers individuals to make informed financial decisions, strengthening economic stability and reducing financial vulnerability. Similarly, the European Commission (2021) has recognized digital financial literacy as a crucial factor for promoting financial inclusion, reducing inequality, and fostering economic growth across the EU.

The DiFiLiR project, led by Maltaccelerate, with Helix Social Innovation Hub and the Cooperative Bank of Karditsa as partners, aims to enhance digital financial literacy in Europe, targeting vocational learners, SMEs, and marginalized groups to promote financial inclusion and economic empowerment.

This initiative aligns with broader European strategies to advance financial literacy and inclusion, and beyond closing the digital financial knowledge gap, the project establishes a foundation for lifelong financial empowerment, ensuring that individuals and businesses can confidently navigate financial systems and digital transactions.
