Why do so many students overlook it as a subject and career path? And what can
we do to change that?
In this episode, we’re joined by Thando Mafa and Annur Chaudhary, two passionate Discover Economics Student Ambassadors, who are on a mission to inspire more young people to see the value of economics.
Originally from Botswana and Bangladesh, they share their journeys into economics, what made them fall in love with the subject, and how they’re helping students and teachers see its real-world impact.
Through their outreach work in schools, Thando and Annur have discovered that
many students don’t realise how broad and exciting economics can be. They break down common misconceptions, highlight how economics connects to everything from sustainability to psychology, and share what’s working when it comes to getting more students engaged.
This would suit being used as part of a suite of Economics homeworks, or for use in citizenship, careers, or PSHE lessons.
