CECEA: Centre for Experimental and Computational Economics of Africa
Welcome to CECEA: The Centre for Experimental and Computational Economics of Africa, founded by Farouk Abdul-Salam. Our center is dedicated to introducing the emerging fields of computational and experimental economics to students and professionals across Africa. Our primary goal is to provide a dynamic platform for learning and exploration in these disciplines while offering valuable insights into key policy issues affecting the continent.
At CECEA, we recognize the importance of addressing the unique economic challenges faced by the African continent. Many existing economic assumptions have failed to consider these differences, leading to ineffective policies. Therefore, we strive to establish assumptions that are specific to Africa, aiming to generate impactful solutions to economic problems faced by both the private and public sectors. Our ultimate mission is to drive positive change and contribute to the growth and development of Africa.
Our research scope covers a range of critical topics, including:
1. Market and product research2. Trust and counterfeit issues3. Currency design and monetary policies4. Strategic complementarity and substitutability in macroeconomic settings5. Utilizing genetic algorithms to theorize experiment outcomes
As we embark on this transformative journey, we invite you to join us in revolutionizing the fields of computational and experimental economics in Africa. Collaborations and partnerships are essential to our success, and we are open to working together with like-minded individuals and organizations.
We look forward to making meaningful contributions to Africa's economic landscape and creating a positive impact through innovative research and policy recommendations. Together, we can shape a brighter future for the continent.
Join us at CECEA and be part of this exciting journey of exploration, discovery, and positive change.
Warm regards,
