Pursuant to Republic Act No. 10922, the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) leads the annual celebration of the Economic and Financial Literacy Week (EFLW), which is set every second week of November (November 5-9, 2018).

The theme for this year’s celebration is “National Identification for Greater Economic and Financial Inclusion:Sa Pag-angat ng Ekonomiya at Pinansya: Lahat Makakasali, Kapag May Pambansang ID”.

It highlights NEDA’s advocacy of ensuring that every Filipino and resident, especially the poor, can have access to public services and development opportunities.
