Better education \u2013 a gain for society as a whole<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n

What is the economic value of high-quality education? At SCHULBAU Berlin, Katia Werkmeister from the ifo Center for the Economics of Education will present current research findings and demonstrate the long-term impact that improved academic performance can have on the German economy.<\/p>\n\n

Student academic performance in Germany has been declining for about 15 years. To counter this trend, measurable educational targets have been proposed for 2035. A recent study by the ifo Institute highlights the economic potential of their implementation: over an 80-year period, nearly 21 trillion euros in additional economic output could be generated.<\/p>\n\n

In her presentation “Economic Returns to Better Education”, Katia Werkmeister examines the current educational situation in Berlin and explains why investments in educational quality matter far beyond day-to-day school life. In doing so, she also focuses on the crucial role of local daycare centers and schools.<\/p>\n\n

The Speaker<\/strong>Katia Werkmeister is a research associate at the ifo Center for the Economics of Education and a doctoral candidate at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen. She studied economics and political science in Munich and Milan, having previously worked at various economic policy institutions. Her research focuses on the transition from education to the labor market and the economic effects of education on individuals and society.<\/p>\n\n

Find out at SCHULBAU Berlin why better education is not only a societal responsibility, but also a vital investment in our economic future.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
