Launch of the Think Tank for Education in Panama (Past)

How This Event Relates to Doughnut Economics

The Think Tank for Education in Panama embraces the principles of Doughnut Economics by rethinking education as a regenerative and distributive system. Quality education is fundamental to shaping an economy that meets the needs of all people while respecting planetary boundaries.

This event aligns with the "See the Big Picture" principle, one of the Seven Ways to Think Like a 21st-Century Economist. Education should not be seen in isolation but as an interconnected system that influences economic fairness, environmental responsibility, and social well-being. By applying these principles, the think tank aims to foster systemic change that contributes to a more equitable and sustainable future.
