Economist's Day in Russia
November 11 · Level 2 · #1951 of 2238
Economist's Day in Russia recognises people who study the economy, plan spending and support decisions with data. Their work connects numbers to everyday questions about production, investment and the use of limited resources.
How it is celebrated: professional associations and universities hold conferences, lectures and award ceremonies. Colleagues exchange congratulations and recognise achievements in economic research and practical work.
The date recalls the founding of the Free Economic Society in 1765. Its history reaches back well before spreadsheets or computer forecasts became tools of the trade.
