That's the question guiding Economics in Action. It's a growing set of practical programs that help students apply economic reasoning to the issues shaping their world.

01

How AI is reshaping jobs, skills, and opportunity.

The technology thread

AI is a thread, not a pillar.

KFF doesn't chase AI as a trend. It teaches students to use AI with economic reasoning, ethics, and judgment, so the tools extend what they can do without replacing how they think.
