At the Equifax Paraguay office, volunteers received training to implement the 10th edition of Economics for Success, a joint initiative by Fundación Paraguaya and Junior Achievement in partnership with Equifax that, since 2016, has benefited more than 200 students per edition.
The program aims to help young people discover how to achieve a successful economic life by combining conscious career choices with effective money management. Through dynamic workshops and hands-on activities, participants learn to identify their skills, interests, and values, understand the job market, and appreciate the importance of career guidance in making life decisions.
For this edition, the schools selected by Junior Achievement are:
• Grace Asunción School
• National School E.M.D. “Gral. Pablo L. Ávila”
• Vicente Ignacio Iturbe School
Student training sessions will take place between August and September, benefiting youth from these educational institutions in Asunción.
During the session, volunteers received detailed instructions on the methodology and activities to be implemented this year, ensuring a meaningful learning experience that inspires students to plan their academic and professional futures with strong life skills.
Economics for Success is a space for learning and motivation that, over its ten editions, has impacted hundreds of Paraguayan teenagers, equipping them with the knowledge and perspectives needed to build a prosperous future.
