ELRI and the University of Queensland Economics Society (UQES) has held a “Policy Pitch Competition”.
It involved the entrants researching a topic of their choice, making a 10 minute presentation and being cross examined by the panel comprised of Professor Flavio Menezes, Professor of Economics, School of Economics at UQ , Professor Jeff Mann, Director of ELRI and Dr. Ian MacKenzie, Senior Lecturer, School of Economics at UQ.
It was a great success – there were 17 entrants and the standard was high. The winner was Filip Milosavljevic. The prize is an internship with ELRI.
