Economics Observatory Phase 2

经济观察站(ECO)在学术界、政策界和公众之间架起一座桥梁，平衡而可靠地回答与“新冠肺炎”相关的经济问题，以及其他长期的经济和社会挑战，包括生产率、环境和可持续发展、地区差距和升级、生活成本和通胀。ECO是一个分布在全国范围内的项目，其领导层来自英国各个国家和地区。天文台总部设在布里斯托尔，在威尔士、苏格兰和北爱尔兰设有领导中心，每天就与政策有关的问题提供最新情况。ECO的首要目标建立在两个支柱上。首先，向政策制定者、公众和其他利益攸关方提供对当代问题的最高质量的分析，并成为平衡和可获得的材料的可靠来源。第二，通过建立一个量身定做的外联计划，利用大师班、私人政策研讨会、公共活动、出版物和我们的在线“枢纽”，更好地交流经济数据和更清晰的经济写作，以追求这项工作的影响。综合来看，这两个支柱旨在帮助生态推动公共政策制定、讨论和理解方面的改进。

The Economics Observatory (ECO) bridges the gap between academia, policy and the public to provide balanced and reliable answers to the economic questions related to Covid-19 and other long-term economic and societal challenges including productivity, the environment and sustainability, regional disparities and levelling-up, and the cost of living and inflation. A distributed and nationwide project, the ECO's leadership is drawn from across the countries and regions of the UK. With a core-hub based in Bristol and leadership in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, the Observatory provides daily updates on policy-relevant questions. The overarching aims of the ECO rest on two pillars. First, to provide the highest-quality analysis of contemporary questions to policymakers, the public and other stakeholders and to be a trusted source for balanced and accessible material. Second, to pursue impact for this work by building a tailored outreach plan that uses masterclasses, private policy seminars, public events, publications and our on-line "Hubs" for better communication of economic data and clearer economic writing. Take together these two pillars are designed to help ECO drive improvements in public policymaking, discourse and understanding.
