Who we are

About Econ Wars

Econ Wars is a rigorous, multi-round economics olympiad for the most ambitious high school and university students across Central Asia. We believe that economic literacy is not just an academic skill — it is the foundation of better societies.

Our pillars

What we stand for

01

Academic Rigour

Every question is designed and reviewed by practising economists and academics. We hold the content to the same standard as a university entrance exam.

02

Regional Impact

Econ Wars brings together students from across Central Asia — building a generation of economic thinkers connected across borders and institutions.

03

Two Tracks

The Junior Track is open to high school students. The Senior Track targets university undergraduates. Same rigour, calibrated challenge.

Our Story

We were frustrated. There was no consistent economics competition in Uzbekistan where students could actually compete, climb a leaderboard, and earn real rewards — so in 2026, we built our own.

Our first online olympiad brought together 40participants — and we’re only just getting started.
