The Economics Observatory (ECO) is a project funded by the ESRC that bridges the gap between academic research, government policy and the general public.
The goal of the ECO is to provide balanced and reliable answers to the economic questions that Covid-19 and its aftermath will bring. The mission is to make these answers as accessible and engaging as possible. The ECO team is drawn from across the countries and regions of the UK, with a hub in Bristol.
By publishing daily articles, videos and charts, the ECO can help the public, students and policymakers better understand the pandemic and the numerous challenges that will follow.
