About

The European Economic Association (EEA) is an International scientific body, with membership open to all persons involved or interested in economics, that promotes the development of economic science throughout Europe, as well as communication between educators, researchers and students, the links between university and research centres and relations between academic economists and policy-makers.

The main aims of the EEA are:

  • to contribute to the development and application of economics as a science in Europe;
  • to improve communication and exchange between educators, researchers and students in economics in the different European countries;
  • to develop and sponsor co-operation between teaching institutions of university level and research institutions in Europe." (article 2 of statutes)

The EEA cooperates, on a complementary and non-competing basis, with the existing national and international economic associations.
