The Euro Challenge is a great learning experience for these students as they go beyond the headlines of economic news to fully understand key economic concepts and the complex realities faced by policymakers. By learning how Europe is dealing with these challenges, the Euro Challenge helps young Americans to have a better understanding of how Europe and America are deeply connected.
The Euro Challenge brings the EU to life better than any text book or web site. It gives bright young Americans a lifelong interest in economics and in the EU-US partnership – which today is more important than ever, as we work together for sustainable global recovery.
The single most beneficial competition to offer kids a venue through which to learn and gain practical experience beyond our borders.
I can follow economic news and read about what is happening in the euro area and actually understand what is going on! All in all, participating in the Euro Challenge was an amazing experience.
This competition enables the next generation to see the value in acquiring the skills and knowledge necessary to understand global economic issues.
