ERSA - Economic Research Southern Africa

Since 2004, Economic Research Southern Africa (ERSA) has been the premier platform for economic researchers in Southern Africa by driving the volume, quality and policy-relevance of economic research to effectively inform economic policy in Southern Africa. We do this by offering opportunities for publishing, funding, conferences, training, and contributing to public policy debates.  

ERSA promotes rigorous research in four areas: 
1) Monetary and Fiscal Policy
2) Trade, Industrial and Competition Policy
3) Environmental Policy, and 
4) Human Capital Policy

It nurtures economic talent among students and academics, and aims to improve public debate by fostering research and dialogues among international scholars and economists, local academics, public-sector officials, and private-sector professionals.
