Theme for YEOTY 2022:
Creating our Future: The Role of Economics in a Sustainable World
Projects may be in any area of economics. For examples and inspiration, previous winning entries can be

This year we will continue to promote an inquiry-based approach by students. While we encourage students to integrate the use of digital media into their presentations, the emphasis is on the quality of the investigation and economic analysis, through reasoned, well-informed arguments underpinned by relevant data and economic concepts and theories. We also encourage creativity and will accept submissions in a variety of forms such as essay, report, short video/documentary, PowerPoint, Prezi etc. The points below are important to consider when planning and preparing your submissions.
