Why Econec ?
Closing the gap between the curriculum and the classroom
Econec develops ready-to-use teaching modules for economics aligned with the new Swiss framework curriculum (PEC 2024). Our goal is to help teachers bring complex economic, social, and ecological questions into the classroom through clear, flexible, and high-quality resources.
Teachers are facing a major curriculum shift. The new framework gives more space for topics like sustainable development, civic education, and a pluralists of economic concepts. Yet in practice, many teachers do not have the time or tools to rebuild their courses from scratch.
