In early September, Kharkiv National University of Internal Affairs team, which included cadets Milena TSVIETKOVA, Polina DIAKOVA, Yevhen NOVIKOV, Svitlana SHAPOVALOVA, Diana KOROTKA and Ivan ANDRIIENKO, won a grant to implement the “Financial Patrol” project. The goal of the project is to conduct workshops for teenagers in schools and colleges of Ukraine aimed at developing financial literacy, developing skills in recognizing fraudulent schemes and fostering a responsible attitude to personal financial security.

Currently, active work is underway to develop the content of the workshops, detailing training modules and preparing interactive materials. The team of cadets, together with mentors - teachers of the Department of Social and Economic Disciplines - work on modern cases and practical tasks to make the classes as useful, understandable and interesting as possible for teenagers.

An important stage of preparation was the training camp organized by the grantees - the team of the Office of Children and Youth "DiiMO" under the Ministry of Social Policy, Family and Unity of Ukraine. Its program was aimed at personal development, acquiring practical skills, forming leadership qualities and increasing the level of financial literacy. The event took place in the city of Yaremche, in the picturesque Carpathians and created an atmosphere of inspiration and team interaction for the participants. The participants also gained valuable experience in communicating with like-minded people and teams from all over Ukraine, which contributed to the exchange of ideas and the establishment of new partnerships.
