Tim Muilder
Chair
Tim is studying Philosophy and Economics at Erasmus University in Rotterdam. He believes that economists need a more extensive toolkit and a broader perspective to understand the challenges that society faces, such as inequality and the green transition. Enriching the education of economics by making it more pluralistic, real-world based and interdisciplinary will enable students to take on these challenges.
