The role of economic education in the formation of competent citizens

economic education plays a key role in the formation of not only competent specialists, but also conscious citizens who are able to make informed decisions in their personal lives and public activities. In a globalized world where economic processes affect every aspect of society, understanding economic patterns and principles becomes critically important for every person. The relevance of economic education is determined by its ability to provide citizens with the skills necessary for meaningful participation in the economic life of the country. Awareness of basic economic principles allows people to manage their finances more effectively, understand national and global economic processes, which, in turn, promotes a more responsible attitude towards voting and political participation. The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of economic education in the formation of competent citizens.
