The nationwide economics and finance competition "econo=me" focusses on fundamental economic issues, which students from year 7 onwards can use to gain their own insights in creative formats. Differentiated tasks enable integration into economics lessons. The competition supports an everyday examination of the underlying structures and processes of the economy.
Groups of three to ten students can take part with their teacher. The entries will be assessed by a jury separately for lower and upper secondary level; five entries will be honoured in each category. At the end, there will be an award ceremony with the presentation of attractive prizes and class trips.
