I welcome you to the Global Economic Students Association (GESA). By joining this Association you will be coming into close contact with some of the most challenging global problem solving issues of our time. The Global Economic Symposium seeks to find solutions to problems that span our globe, from climate change to financial crisis to poverty to conflict and much more.

We seek to address these problems as global citizens and thereby create a better world for the next generation. As members of the Global Economic Students Association, you are the next generation and therefore should have a strong voice in the formulation of these global solutions. Please join GESA and make your voice heard and contribute to the ideas and projects and initiatives that are meant to create a new shared vision of the future. In joining GESA you can become a catalyst for change.
