Supporting teachers to boost economic literacy.
We offer comprehensive training to help educators deliver engaging, effective economics lessons. With hands-on methods and adaptable resources, our program supports teachers at every level of experience.
Igniting a passion for economics in students.
The Economics Olympiad gives students the chance to challenge themselves, showcase their talent, and explore how economics shapes the world around us. It’s a platform for young thinkers to grow, compete, and shine on the international stage.
Increasing knowledge for professionals.
Professionals such as journalists, lawyers, and other public servants are often called on to make critical economic decisions with little training in the issue at hand. EFI provides impartial and understandable knowledge of what and how to find resources to make informed, fact-based decisions in an accessible way.
