Pelatihan Literasi Keuangan pada Alumni dan Pra Alumni Universitas

Abstract

The low level of financial literacy in Indonesia, which only reaches 38.03%, impacts the low ability of individuals, particularly university alumni and pre-alumni, to manage their finances wisely and in accordance with religious values. This community service activity aims to improve financial literacy and understanding of ethical investment among alumni and pre-alumni members of the Christian Alumni Fellowship community in Bandung. The implementation method included a pre-test, interactive lectures, group discussions, case studies, personal budgeting, and a post-test to measure changes in participants' understanding, attitudes, and behavior. The training results showed significant improvements in understanding basic financial concepts, investment strategies, and risk management. Participants also demonstrated behavioral changes, such as starting to prepare personal budgets, avoiding consumptive behavior, and considering ethical values in investing. This activity successfully increased participants' financial awareness and commitment to applying wise, responsible, and faith-based financial principles in their daily lives.
