The Advisory Board of the Affiliated Institute

The Institute for Economic Education has an Advisory Board, which follows the activities of the Affiliated Institute with a critical eye and provides the institute with consultation and advice. As the Affiliated Institute’s aims are generally achieved through application-oriented Public Private Partnership projects, the composition of the supervisory board reflects this. Possessing their own specialist perspectives, notable figures from academia, politics, charities and foundations, economics and education enjoy insights into IÖB’s activities. The experiences of these individuals are brought together when overseeing the work of the institute. The aims and functions of the Advisory Board include consultation and support as well as connecting people from economics, academia, politics and education with the institute.
