Economic freedom means that people are free to trade with others, compete in markets, buy what they want, earn a living in a job that they choose, keep what they earn, and own things privately. The Economic Freedom of the World (EFW) project, initiated by the Fraser Institute, is a comprehensive measure of economic freedom for a large number of countries. First released in 1996, and the annual Economic Freedom of the World report uses 42 different measures in 5 categories to create an index that ranks 141 countries, representing 95% of the world’s population, based on policies that encourage economic freedom.
Imagine having a single visual representation to easily sum up the relative economic freedom of countries all over the world for your students. The full-colour Economic Freedom of the World Map is a wonderful teaching tool that supports any teacher’s quest to educate young people about the principles of economic freedom and its relation to global prosperity. This workshop will provide teachers with an interactive learning experience, covering 6 economics-themed lesson plans that can be integrated into various high school curriculums including Economics, Social Studies, Geography, as well as Marketing and Business courses.
