Basic financial concepts are vital for facilitating social development in South Africa. In a recently completed study by Adriaan Jordaan a Stellenbosch University graduate shares his Masters research.
Adriaan describes his investigation into the perceptions of social workers on the role of financial literacy education in facilitating social development. Financial literacy education has been understudied in South Africa and studies (in countries with similar socio-economic challenges to SA) have shown financial literacy education initiatives can act as effective mediums to help buffer clients against poor socio-economic circumstances.
