Abstract

This study addresses the limited fiscal awareness among high school students and explores how a participatory approach can foster a better understanding of public budgeting concepts. A one-day community service program was conducted on May 17, 2025, at Sangkhom Islam Wittaya School, Hatyai, Thailand, involving 27 students and several teachers. The program was facilitated by four lecturers and four students from three universities in South Sulawesi, Indonesia: Hasanuddin University, West Sulawesi University, and Muhammadiyah University of Makassar. Using a modified Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach as the educational method, the activity was structured into planning, action, and reflection stages, incorporating interactive workshops, group discussions, and simulated budget allocation exercises. Data were collected through facilitator observations, student responses, and feedback. Findings indicate that students demonstrated an increased understanding of how public resources are managed and the importance of fiscal transparency. This article concludes that experiential and collaborative methods such as PAR are effective in fostering fiscal awareness among youth.

Abstract

Introduction: Strengthening financial literacy among multicultural youth, particularly those without access to formal schooling due to undocumented status, remains an important educational priority. This community engagement program aimed to introduce basic accounting and financial management concepts to children and teenagers at Angkatan Belia Islam, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia, using the Monopoly board game as an engaging learning medium. Methods: The activity involved 28 participants from diverse family backgrounds and nationalities. Conducted on 15 May 2025 at the PERMAI Learning Centre, the program applied a game-based learning approach combined with guided instruction, participatory observation, and short evaluation sheets to assess understanding. Key financial concepts presented included income, expenses, budgeting, cash flow, risk, and simple transaction recording. Results: The use of Monopoly effectively enhanced students’ engagement and comprehension. Participants demonstrated improved ability to recognize types of income and expenses, make basic financial decisions, and relate game scenarios to real-life money management. The activity also fostered collaborative skills such as teamwork, negotiation, and communication. Discussion: Participatory reflection showed that students perceived accounting and financial topics as more enjoyable and accessible when presented through interactive gameplay. Short-term impacts included increased confidence in handling money and a willingness to apply basic budgeting practices in their daily lives. Conclusion: The Monopoly and Accounting program successfully promoted foundational financial literacy among underserved multicultural youth in Malaysia. This model demonstrates a replicable approach to delivering meaningful financial education in community-based, non-formal learning environments.

Abstract

This community engagement program aims to enhance the financial literacy of migrant youth by introducing basic financial education and the application of accounting in daily life. The activity was conducted with 32 participants from Angkatan Belia Islam, Pulau Penang, Malaysia, and facilitated by a team of lecturers from Universitas Negeri Makassar, Atma Jaya University Makassar, and Universitas Muhammadiyah Makassar. The method included pretest, material presentation, interactive discussion, posttest, and feedback sessions. Results of the pretest showed that the average participants’ understanding was below 60%, indicating limited knowledge of fundamental financial concepts such as distinguishing between needs and wants, recording expenses, and planning simple budgets. After the material presentation and discussion, posttest results demonstrated a significant increase in understanding across all indicators, with average scores exceeding 80%. The improvement reflects the effectiveness of the interactive and contextual teaching approach, particularly the use of relatable illustrations and ice-breaking games. The program not only improved participants’ financial literacy but also encouraged the application of accounting principles in their daily decision-making. These findings suggest that practical and participatory financial education initiatives are essential in empowering migrant youth to manage personal finances effectively and build financial independence.
