Learning about Basics of Economics- Guest Lecture by Mr. Rehan

 On the 7th of May, Mr. Rehan (father of DP-2 Student Turab) came to visit the DP-1 to give a
brief lecture on economics and globalization and why it is important to understand these topics
whether we are an economics student or not.


Mr.Rehan explained various different interesting points such as the amount of countries materials were imported from to create a single product. He explained demography and why it is crucial to maintain an even balance especially when it comes to age, since new generations are coming along and older generations are retiring. He discussed why we should read many different academic journals and news around the world.



This lecture was so exciting as he brought up so many surprising facts about different companies and how integral globalization was. This brought a lot of perspective to us IB learners about the real world and what is to be expected in the future. This was especially beneficial to the Econ students as they learnt some real life examples from a proper economist.
