Bitget And UNICEF Launch Financial Literacy Module Featuring Blockchain Education Accessible For Young Learners Worldwide
Cryptocurrency exchange Bitget announced that it has partnered with UNICEF to create a new online financial literacy module within the Game Changers Coalition curriculum, drawing on its blockchain expertise to help young learners grasp financial fundamentals and the technologies shaping the digital financial system.
The module, titled Introduction to Financial Literacy, reflects the evolving nature of financial education, which now goes beyond budgeting and interest rates to include an understanding of how value is exchanged and managed in a digital environment. By blending foundational financial concepts with an introduction to blockchain, the course aims to give learners insight into both the current financial system and the innovations influencing its development.
Designed as an interactive, self-paced online course, the programme features short video lessons, visual learning materials and quizzes covering topics such as supply and demand, budgeting, credit, loans, interest rates and blockchain fundamentals. Learners who complete the course receive a certificate, and the module is available free of charge through Agora, UNICEF’s learning platform. A game-based element, Neon Paycheck, serves as an entry point to the course. Set in a futuristic city, the game places players in the role of a young person making everyday financial decisions related to earning, spending, planning and avoiding scams, translating financial concepts into choices with immediate consequences in line with the Coalition’s broader use of video game development to make complex skills practical and engaging.
Bitget contributed to the blockchain chapters of the curriculum, ensuring that digital assets and blockchain concepts are presented in a practical, accessible and balanced manner. Bitget CEO Gracy Chen also appears throughout the module, guiding learners through key blockchain ideas and their place within the wider financial ecosystem.
“Education has always been important to me. It is one of the reasons I continue teaching as an adjunct professor at HKUST,” said Bitget CEO, Gracy Chen in a written statement. “I’ve seen how quickly young people learn when they’re given the right tools and opportunities. That’s why our work with UNICEF is about making those concepts accessible early so young people can build the knowledge and confidence to make informed financial decisions as the system evolves,” she added.
Expanding Reach Through the Game Changers Coalition
The launch represents the latest development in Bitget’s ongoing collaboration with UNICEF. In 2025, Bitget joined forces with UNICEF Luxembourg to support the Game Changers Coalition, an initiative focused on equipping young people, particularly girls, with future-ready skills. The Coalition has since engaged more than 642,000 young people, parents and teachers across eight countries — Armenia, Brazil, Cambodia, India, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Morocco and South Africa — with expansion planned to Bolivia, Bangladesh and Indonesia in 2026.
The financial literacy module forms part of the Coalition’s wider future-ready curriculum, which also covers artificial intelligence and video game development for young people in emerging economies.
“Young people are growing up in a rapidly changing financial and digital environment. Equipping them with the knowledge and skills to understand this environment can help them make informed decisions and better prepare for their futures,” said Sandra Visscher, UNICEF Luxembourg’s Executive Director in a written statement. “Through the Game Changers Coalition and our partnership with Bitget, we are helping make financial literacy education practical, accessible and engaging for young people,” she added.
As digital assets become increasingly intertwined with traditional finance, understanding how these systems operate is emerging as an essential component of financial literacy. Through educational initiatives alongside product innovation, Bitget aims to reduce barriers to participation and provide more people with the knowledge needed to navigate the future of finance.
