About Economic and Financial Literacy Week (EFLW)
The observance of the EFL week every second week of November is mandated by Republic Act No. 10922, also known as the Economic and Financial Literacy Act, and is aimed towards developing a national consciousness on economic and financial literacy.
The National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) leads the annual celebration of the EFL week.
The devastating consequences of multiple crises that hit the country – the COVID-19 pandemic, volcanic eruptions, and successive typhoons – is changing the Filipino people’s vision of the future.
The pandemic, in particular, challenged and expanded our understanding of a matatag, maginhawa, at panatag na buhay. It is in this context that this year’s Economic and Financial Literacy Week (EFLW) celebration focuses on the theme: A glimpse into AmBisyon Natin 2040: What to expect in the new normal. Everyone is encouraged to participate in the online discussion using the hashtag #EFLW2021.
