The Republic of Turkey Social Security Institution, MasterCard Turkey and TurkishWIN partnered for EvinHesapUzmanıKadın Project (Women: Home Finance Masters) to empower women with financial literacy and positive social security rights education. We are thrilled to work with The Financial Literacy and Inclusion Association (FODER) as our financial literacy education compass. The project was introduced with a press conference in Ankara today.
The project's target group is 18-35 year old women @work. According to the studies, women spend 90% of their income on their families, while men spend only 30-40% of their income on the household. Top that with the fact that women have share their stories and learning three times more than men. Let's state the obvious one more time: Investing in women is investing in our future!
Evin Hesap Uzmanı Kadın Project aims to reach 100 thousand women in three years. We will kick off the face-to-face trainings in 10 cities starting in Antalya on April 28, 2015. The other nine cities include Ankara, Sakarya, Zonguldak, Manisa, Adana, Eskişehir, Kayseri, İstanbul and Bursa. An online portal will be introduced in the second phase.
As TurkishWIN, we are committed to empower women across channels in Turkey and abroad. We thank The Republic of Turkey Social Security Institution and MasterCard Turkey for their partnership and FODER for supporting us. For the full press release please click here.
