Bringing Economics to the community through research, policy, and education.
There’s a lack of economics in school curriculums.
Economics often carries an age barrier within schools, students aren't taught the basic fundamentals of macro and microeconomics aswell as business and finance often until their senior or junior years of high school. These skills and studies can have important benefits in the education of young students but also their leadership skills and general understanding of the world, the economy, and status quo. We're here to change that.
Our solution.
Economics for Change is a student-led organization committed to driving positive change in our local schools and communities. We teach a curriculum created by our members that explores from the basics of micro and macroeconomics to the complicated multivariable calculus of Econometrics. Personal finance classes and business skills are also taught.
We partner with schools to educate young students while developing their passions. Outside of teaching, EFC maintains an academic blog that covers various papers/articles primarily focused on Economics. Other members conduct academic research and compete in competitions. By providing valuable volunteer and learning experience and opportunities, as well as investigating and exploring the intricacies of Economics, Finance, Business, and etc. EFC strives to push out policy amendments in our local governments through initiative.
Everything we provide is cost-free so that any student can take advantage of our offerings. The end goal is that through our mentoring, young students will develop skills to help them fulfill their aspirations.
