Klooigeld

An initiative by students Liz, Lian, Nynke, and Robin from the Economics & Communication program, in collaboration with Fontys ICT.

The goal is to develop an educational app that teaches young people to manage money through play.

In the core concept, young people experiment with virtual money, called Klooigeld, and learn financial skills without risk. Do you have something to contribute to this awesome initiative? Let us know!
