An integrative pedagogical method for community-based financialeducation with a gender approach

Abstract

Through strategies such as project-based learning, gamification and collaborative learning, we seek to train women in the communities to manage their resources and make informed decisions. The methodology used is a mixed approach (quantitative-qualitative), interviews were conducted with professional trainers and surveys were applied to women in the Ecuadorian province of Esmeraldas. The results suggest that the method will mitigate the adverse economic consequences in affected communities. This guarantees access to education and fosters a culture of empowerment in the communities to face future challenges.
