The second grant awarded in 2019 is intended to support Core Economics website with operational costs and enable the maintenance of the project, delivery of outputs and scaling up to ensure continued success and viability of the project.

Open Society Foundations
The Open Society Foundations grant supported the evolution of Core Economics website from a research project into a legal entity – the Core Economics website Economics Education, a registered charity in England and Wales (number 1175143). The grant enabled Core Economics website to be well equipped with personnel to manage the increased level of activity of the organization. In addition, it enabled the creation of an innovative, best-practice, open-source publishing platform for the online editions of The Economy and for translations and adaptations of the text for different user communities. This has broken new ground in changing the way multi-format books are made – the platform has the ability to deliver a project as an e-book, an app, and camera ready pdf for printing with a click of a button.
