POMAC 6.0
Advertisement
POMAC 6.0 - the flagship policy-making competition of BUP Economics Clubs, stands to remark on the legacy of the club since 2019. Over the years, POMAC has established itself as a platform where future policymakers, economists, and leaders turn ideas into impact. In the current global landscape of economic volatility, Bangladesh stands even more vulnerable as the buzzword “impending recession” is growing aloud from the corner.
POMAC theme for this year:
"Fuel, Inflation, and Fiscal Strain: Managing Energy Price Shocks in Bangladesh"
Event Segments:
Policy Case Competition
Total Number of Rounds: 3
Round 1:
Participants will be provided with a case problem, which they must solve with fundamental reasoning and policy suggestions. Policy suggestions should provide economic justification with theory and empirical data.
Case study solutions have to be submitted online as a 15-slide deck.
Round 2:
Twelve teams advancing to this round will participate in a policy dialogue. In this round, participants will represent different stakeholders in the economy, like the government, private sector, international organizations, NGOs or civil society. They will engage in discussions on major economic policy issues, reflecting both national and global perspectives. The dialogue will focus on real-world challenges such as trade policy, foreign investment, taxation, employment, climate finance, and other current economic concerns.
A workshop will be conducted before round 2. The tentative time and required materials will be mailed to the team leader's mail.
Round 3: Grand Finale
This round comprises 6 finalist teams. This round's case analysis will revolve around the main theme of POMAC: Fuel, Inflation, and Fiscal Strain: Managing Energy Price Shocks in Bangladesh. Teams will present policy solutions highlighting their strengths based on the updated national context, budget and originality. A big part of the evaluation will involve not just defending their ideas but also questioning and critiquing the arguments of other teams.
With the evaluation of expert judges, three of the most exceptional teams are expected to emerge as winners. The finalist teams will get mentorship opportunities before the final round to make sure they have the best pitch.
