48th ABS Annual Conference

This session is for researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, and professionals working in the field of economics. The purpose is to explore how we see the vision of the Universal House of Justice unfolding in the discipline of economics and how we can contribute to the advancement of civilization through our work in this field. We will explore examples from academic work of Baha'is striving to engage the economics discourse in a manner that is coherent with the Baha'i conceptual framework. Then we will discuss how, as Bahá’ís, we can contribute to constructive avenues of research, advance the generation of knowledge, and participate in discourses in the field in a manner that is aligned with Baha'i teachings and guidance.
