Belgian economic research is internationally known as fostering the development of rigorous mathematical, statistical and computational methods. It is also known for its contributions on major issues in the global economy, such as unemployment and poverty reduction, pollution control, innovation, growth and competition policy. A clear message is that ethical implications as well as strategic interactions cannot be avoided in economic analysis and policy. ECORE is meant to maintain this recognized expertise in Belgium, to encourage its development by the young generation and to open its availability and usefulness to a larger set of decision-makers.
