Mission of the CES
The Czech Economic Society (CES) is an association of people working or interested in the area of economics. The main mission of the CES is to enhance the development and general knowledge of economics in the Czech Republic in a way that fully respects and supports plurality of opinions and autonomous evolution of individual schools of economics.
To achieve this aim, the CES organises lectures and seminars and competitions for young economists and produces publications focused on economics. Once every two years, it organises a biennial conference, which alternates at yearly intervals with the general assembly of the CES.
The CES is a member of the Council of Scientific Societies of the Czech Republic.
