The All-Russian Economic Dictation will take place on October 14.

The All-Russian educational campaign "All-Russian Economic Dictation" will take place on October 14, 2025, in all regions of Russia, as well as in foreign countries.

The event was organized by the Free Economic Society of Russia with the participation of the Russian Historical Society, the Yuri Luzhkov Foundation, the administrations of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, leading universities of the Russian Federation, with the support of the TASS news agency, Rossiyskaya Gazeta, and the Economic Newspaper Publishing House.

The goal of the economic dictation is educational. It aims to improve economic literacy and broaden Russians' economic horizons, develop interest in current economic issues, introduce participants to economic theory and history, foster a culture of financial behavior, and teach them how to apply economic knowledge and skills in everyday life.

As per tradition, Russians will take the economic dictation test on the campaign website, both at regional venues—universities, lyceums, colleges, technical schools, gymnasiums, schools, libraries, museums, entrepreneurship development centers, departments, and administrations of Russian regions—and individually.

Participants will have access to two types of assignments:

• For students in grades 9-11 of secondary general and vocational education;
• For university students and other age groups.

The Economic Dictation was first held in 2017 and has since significantly expanded its geographic reach and participation. In 2024, 392,456 people from all regions of the Russian Federation, as well as from 11 foreign countries—Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Armenia, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, China, Turkey, Mongolia, and Syria—participated in the event. This is almost seven times more than in 2017.

An analytical report is compiled annually based on the results of the All-Russian Economic Dictation. Its authors evaluate the results of the campaign at the regional level. The data obtained allows us to assess the level of economic literacy and economic activity of the population of the country and individual regions.

Access to the economic dictation tasks will open on October 14 at 5:00 Moscow time on the event website: https://diktant.org/

The results of the campaign, as per tradition, will be presented on November 11 at the All-Russian Economic Assembly, dedicated to the 260th anniversary of the VEO of Russia and the professional holiday "Economist's Day."

The All-Russian educational campaign "All-Russian Economic Dictation" will take place on October 14, 2025, in all regions of Russia, as well as in foreign countries.
