OVERVIEW

Economics is vital to a changing modern life as it seeks to understand, assess and explain the mechanisms of markets and national economies. This importance of Economics to the Botswana Economy is as espoused in the National Development Plan (NDP 11) and the Vision 2036. Botswana through Vision 2036, aims at achieving the pillars of Sustainable Economic Development and Human and Social Development. The two pillars emphasise transformation to a knowledge based economy that would enable citizens to globally compete in driving economic growth and diversification. There is need to therefore develop skills, competencies and experts who will drive this transformation.
