From successful pilots to systemic change — how Europe can embed financial-literacy support for migrant and refugee women.
These evidence-based recommendations translate lessons from the FEW project into concrete actions that EU, national and local authorities can adopt right now.
Why read this brief?
- Evidence-based – draws on pilots in France, Spain, Italy and Estonia where 80 % of participants improved budgeting confidence and 40 % advanced to jobs or businesses.
- Four-pillar structure – Youth Empowerment, Digital Tools, Local Integration Pathways and Sustainability make adoption straightforward.
- Actionable measures – institutionalise local financial-literacy services, forge municipal–NGO alliances, scale mobile learning and tap ESF+, AMIF or CSR funds.
- Ready to replicate – step-by-step guidance and a pilot-to-scale roadmap adaptable to any EU context.
“Financial empowerment should be a standard feature of every integration strategy, not an optional extra.”
