The Economics Olympiad was established in 2016 by the Institute of Economic Education (INEV) and its founder – Martina Bacik. It quickly emerged as one of the Czech Republic’s most prestigious high school competitions. Expanding rapidly, it now engages about 80,000 students globally, transcending its national roots to embrace an international audience. Tailored for students aged 14 to 20 without restriction to the type of secondary education, the Economics Olympiad garners support both nationally and internationally from esteemed entities like the Ministries of Education, Central Banks, Academic Institutions, and prestigious Sponsors.
Our mission is to provide students and young adults around the world with in-depth economic and financial education, to empower educators with the necessary tools to facilitate this learning, and to drive systemic change in educational systems globally to elevate the importance and quality of economic and financial education.
Through these efforts, we aim to forge a future where every young individual is equipped with the economic literacy essential for informed decision-making and active participation in the global economy.
