Workshop Format

At the beginning of each session, participants are introduced to core financial literacy concepts, setting the foundation for practical application.

Using our proprietary learning tool, L Cube, they engage in groups of five, either in the classroom or a hall, actively applying these concepts through an interactive, hands-on simulation that strengthens their money management skills. Throughout the experience, participants learn to think critically in challenging situations, adapt to shifting economic conditions, and remain resilient when facing uncertainty.

To wrap up, a debrief reinforces key learning points, ensuring they leave with a clearer understanding of financial concepts and positive habits for managing their money.

This interactive approach transforms learning into an engaging, hands-on journey toward mastering money management skills.
