State budget presentation for children
The Ministry of Finance is deeply committed to the promotion of financial literacy and believes that it should begin in primary school. Therefore, it has prepared a simple infographic to explain to primary-school pupils how the state budget works.
The state budget can be thought of as a household budget – just on a larger scale. Just as a family allocates its money to cover its basic needs, the government plans how it will spend the funds available in a given year.
Understanding how the state budget works is important, as it affects our everyday lives. By understanding the budget, we gain an insight into how our taxes are spent and what the government's priorities are, which helps promote responsible and transparent use of public funds.
