Economic Fundamentals Initiative
Mission

The Economic Fundamentals Initiative was established in 2019 to promote economic literacy and champion free market economics across Eastern Europe, the South Caucasus and Central Asia. Its first project is the regionalization, translation and free distribution of “Common Sense Economics”, a classic introduction to free market economics. A growing network of country partners delivers online and offline programs to encourage readers to explore the book and to think like common sense economists. Currently active in Albania and Kosovo, Armenia, Georgia, Ukraine and Uzbekistan with new editions in Azerbaijani, Kazakh and Kyrgyz available from spring 2022.
