Tala helps advance financial literacy among Filipinos with TALAkayan
workshops
Do you already own a business or planning to put a new one? How about managing your finances and have struggled in budgeting? Do you know what will happen to your money in 3, 6, 12 months or more? I guess not. Unless you have a proper education and a good background in money management.
We are living in a world today where information is readily available and accessible with the use of internet. But, learning face-to-face is a different level when it comes to financial literacy. And one of the best approaches is through a seminar and workshops where active participation is encouraged between the speaker and the attendees.
This post is about the recently concluded TALAkayan workshops organized by TALA Philippines held last July 13, 2024, at the Trinoma Activity Center, Quezon City. The majority of the participants were aspiring and budding entrepreneurs, and MSME (micro, small and medium enterprises) owners. Also some of the mall-goers attended the event.
Tala, the world’s first fintech company for the Global Majority, understands the importance of financial literacy to accelerate financial inclusion. In response to the need for stronger financial education in the country, TALA Philippines rolled out TALAkayan, a series of workshops together with financial literacy advocate and money expert Salve Duplito where participants can learn money management skills and be equipped with useful tools for their financial journey.

Each workshop is designed
in a way that is interactive and catered to the needs of the respective
audiences, using examples and scenarios that are relatable and relevant to
their everyday life to make learning more effective. Some of the most recent
TALAkayan workshops were conducted among CCT (conditional cash transfer)
beneficiaries in Pasig City, and women and mothers in Quezon City.

One of the presentation where Ms. Salve talked about is the Vision Board: A Life that Give You Joy.
|
The Vision Board: A Life that Give You Joy is like what do you want to have when reach 60 years old or before you reach this age. This was a lively discussion between Ms. Duplito and the participants. She encouraged them to put them in to the piece of paper. After a period of time, she collected them all. Some were revealed thru "pinoy henyo" approach like "to have a farm and a lot" and "to travel around the world"
Yours truly seems to it impossible for a person who works 8/5 a day that is dependent on his/her hard earned money. But with financial education and money management, yes, this is possible.
