Skills for Life

Master your budget and navigate basic contracts and legislation

Financial and/or legal literacy will come in handy every day.  

Financial literacy

How does a financially literate person behave? How to avoid becoming a debtor today? And what does a typical borrower look like? Do you know the basic financial products? Can you make a budget?

If you want to know the answer to these and other questions, come! The workshops are loosely connected, participation in the second meeting is not conditional on participation in the first.

Part I - What will you learn?

  • We will explain how to be financially literate.
  • We will review basic financial products and how to choose them according to your life situation.
  • We'll look at why and how to set personal and family budgets.

Part II - What will you learn?

  • You'll find out what you need to pay, what to watch out for and how to prevent debt.
  • We'll go over the characteristics of a "typical" debtor.
  • We will look at the different paths between debt and foreclosure.

Lecturers:  Veronika Jírová & Ing. Lukáš Bažanovský

Date: 24 October 2023 - Part I, 31 October 2023 - Part II, always from 16:00

Legal literacy

The legal literacy lecture series will provide participants with a basic overview of the legal system and insight into various legal matters (contracting, civil litigation, criminal proceedings). You will learn the general basics of law, the principles of legal proceedings and how to navigate the law. We will take a detailed look at contract and promissory note law, which are useful to understand better, including a detailed analysis of specific contracts and promissory notes.

The entire series is designed to be interactive, discussing specific real-world situations, what to watch out for, and there will be plenty of room for your questions (prepare questions on anything that interests you). The series will prepare you for common life situations - you will learn to understand the basic types of contracts and how to check or adjust them.

There are three lectures that build on each other and you must take all three.

Lecturer: Ing. Martin Novák

Date: 20.11., 27.11. and 4.12., always from 17:00
