Started as a small group of passionate economics students who wanted to educate their peers on this amazing subject, GAEE has grown to become a global organization providing students in developing countries and marginalized communities with world-class learning and development opportunities through the platform of economics literacy.
GAEE is officially recognized as the SDG Action No. 36897 by the United Nations.
World-class Learning Materials
GAEE develops our innovative curriculum based on the Rice University OpenStax, HSFPP, CEE’s K12, CORE, RE, and Financial Times SSI and tailored it to the local needs of our chapters with an emphasis on real-life application and a heterodox approach.
