MISSION, TARGETS, PRINCIPLES


The mission of the Institute for Economic Research and Policy Consulting is to provide alternative solutions to key problems of social and economic development in Ukraine.

The key tasks associated with the implementation of our mission at the current stage are:

  • Providing top quality expertise in the field of economy and economic policy-making, and developing strategic and instrumental components of the economic policy
  • Forming public opinion through the organization of public debate and spreading knowledge
  • Contributing to the development of economic and social sciences as well as promoting the development of Ukrainian research community.

In its work the Institute is guided by the principles of free and democratic markets in an open society. The key precondition for the IER activity is its political independence that ensures impartiality in the IER recommendations on economic policy problems and helps avoiding manipulation with the research results. At the same time, the Institute actively cooperates with policy and lawmakers to implement the policy recommendations.
