Oide Young Economist of the Year (Ireland)

Rated Advanced, this Irish competition invites secondary students to submit original economics work through the published school or individual route. Entrants investigate an economic issue and present their reasoning for judging. The main challenge is framing a worthwhile question, applying economic concepts accurately and communicating evidence, analysis and conclusions in a coherent student-led project.
