CODE project aims at fostering the inclusion of persons with disabilities by improving their access to financial services. Specific objectives are: - Increase the target group’s financial literacy - Improve the target group’s ability to manage their finances - Enhance the target group’s independent lives - Increase accessibility of financial services - Increase accessibility of the workplace - Improve inclusive training course offer - Support the use of UDL approach in VET

To achieve the objectives of CODE, several activities were identified and divided into five work packages: - WP1 - Project Management activities - WP2 - Training Course and Digital tools (inclusive platform and app) - WP3 - Piloting of the course - WP4 - Guidelines for accessibility (of the workplace and of financial services) and LTTA - WP5 - Dissemination, Exploitation and Sustainability

CODE partnership will produce a financial training course based on UDL principles and integrated on a learning platform, developed following the highest accessibility standards. The learning material will be supported by a finance management app, created according to the same standards. To grant complete support for the independent living of persons with disabilities, general guidelines for the accessibility of the workplace and specific guidelines for financial services will be developed.
