7 Pillars of Financial Literacy


I prepared this mind map, with the help of Project Be, for presentation in a "Training of Trainors" Financial Literacy Workshop on October 1. You can click on the (+) buttons to expand the nodes, and zoom in and out and go full screen using the buttons at the bottom of the frame. Fully expanded, you'll see the overall scope of financial literacy (at least in my/our minds). Although there is a natural linear progression from "pillar" 1 to 7, I thought it would be more useful to present the topics this way, especially since some topics in different pillars are interrelated (as indicated by the brightly-colored curves).

You can do with this mind map as you please; I do think it is a helpful tool in evaluating your progress and formulating strategies for improvement. I'm sharing this because I think it's something we all can learn from, so I hope you will share it too. Finally, I welcome feedback and comments: Have I missed anything? Do you disagree with any of this? Is there any specific topic here that you want me to discuss in a future post?

Thank you all and have a great weekend!
