The learning setback caused by the closing of schools during the COVID-19 pandemic will cost the Czech economy hundreds of billions in the future due to decreased labour productivity, a new study by economists from the think-tank IDEA at CERGE-EI suggests.
The month of March was abundant with many articles in which our experts commented on topics that were again related to the pandemic: mainly the consequences of COVID-19 on the country's economic development.
Today we are joining Charles University to celebrate the Day of Education in the Czech Republic.
Martin Čihák, one of CERGE-EI’s early PhD graduates, recollected his student memories with us and talked about his work for the International Monetary Fund.
