Where the people who shape the economy connect, research and grow

Join the economists, researchers, students and professionals from every field in the Ethiopian Economics Association — full, associate, student and institutional members, with a member directory, the Statistical Database, a research assistant and the events that shape economic thinking.

Not an economist? Associate membership is open to professionals from other fields, and institutions join through the same form.

    Has anyone worked with the latest household survey microdata?

    Yes — I cleaned the consumption module last year. Happy to share my do-files.

    That would save us weeks. Shall we compare notes at Thursday's session?

    What has driven inflation in Ethiopia since 2021?

    Answer

    Studies in the Association's publications point mainly to food prices and exchange-rate pass-through, with money-supply growth adding pressure [1][2].
