Empowering Young Women Through Economics Education

Our mission

Why Does Girl Economics Exist?

01.

Reduce the Gender Gap

Economists and business leaders make decisions that affect us all. If women aren’t represented amongst these decision-makers, the choices made are unlikely to benefit them.

02.

Give Opportunities to Young Women

How many times have you been the only woman in a room? At Girl Economics we want to create inviting spaces for young women to get involved in business and economics.

03.

Increase Awareness of Economic Affairs

The primary source of news for Gen Z is social media. Across our social platforms, we try to break down current affairs and share the stories shaping our world.

Young women are involved in the Girl Economics community
Why do we want more young women studying economics?

#girleconomics

In August 2024, we’ll be launching an international campaign aimed at empowering more young women to study economics.
In the UK, boys are currently twice as likely to choose economics A Level as girls, and our polling suggests that many young women don’t study the subject due to a belief that it is ‘not for them’.

We believe this needs to change.

Women need to be involved in making key decisions
Girls should not feel that economics is a ‘boy’s subject’
Girl Economics provides a community and resources which empower young women.
