During the meeting, it was agreed as a first step to prepare a 2026 Regional Annual Work Plan, which will detail the actions and activities scheduled for the implementation of the program in 2026. This Plan will allow the public educational institutions of the Arequipa region to be convened, ensuring organized and articulated execution of the program.
The authorities highlighted the importance of continuing to promote STEAM+H Financial Education, which contributes to the development of financial skills in students, strengthening their ability to make responsible decisions regarding savings, spending and the appropriate use of economic resources.
Financial education is a key tool for the comprehensive training of girls, boys and adolescents, as it allows them to understand basic concepts such as budgeting, savings, credit and financial planning, preparing them to face the economic challenges of their personal and family lives in an informed manner.
With this initial coordination, the Regional Government of Arequipa, through the Regional Education Management, seeks to work jointly with strategic allies to promote quality education and train responsible and financially informed citizens.
