Economics need to change - now more than ever! With Exploring Economics, we strengthen alternative economic approaches and counter mainstream economics with a critical and pluralistic vision of economic education. We also provide background analyses on current economic debates to strengthen a critical economic discourse.
Unfortunately, we are running out of money to continue our work.
With a small contribution you can help Exploring Economics to stay online. Thank you!

Macroeconomics 101 by the Pan African Feminist Political Economy Collective NAWI explains in a simple and accessible way, why macroeconomics matters. The booklet starts from the perspective of an African woman buying garlic on the market and explains from this perspective, how macroeconomics affects daily life. In doing so, the booklet looks at the impact of structural adjustment programmes and neo-liberalism.
Macroeconomics 101 explains in accessible language why macroeconomics matters in everyday life, how it relates to women's rights issues and adresses the impact of structural adjustment programmes. Using everyday examples such as the price of garlic or the cost of basic health care, the booklet connects abstract concepts to everyday experiences.
