Gateway Guide to Youth Financial Inclusion
Why is financial inclusion for children and youth important? What are the barriers to financial inclusion for young people? Can providing youth financial services be sustainable for financial service providers?
These are some of the frequently asked questions which are answered on the Gateway’s newly updated Youth and Children topic page, developed in collaboration with Child and Youth Finance International. Besides the FAQs, the new resources also include a list of Recommended Reading and a guide to the various resources available on the topic, from international guidelines, recommendations and principles, to organizations, programs, campaigns and initiatives all related to youth financial inclusion.
