For the first time in Egypt, Sadat Academy for Management Sciences (SAMS) will hold a conference on “Economic Happiness” on Sunday, where five Egyptian ministers will participate, including Supply Minister Ali Meselhy, Planning Minister Hala al-Saeed and Higher Education Minister Khaled Abdel Ghaffar. Sadat Academy is holding an economic conference for the fourth consecutive year. The idea of economic happiness is new to the Egyptian society, but it deserves research, study and attention from the executive authorities, according to Desouky. The conference will display 10 research papers discussing the various dimensions of economic happiness. The conference will also discuss achieving economic happiness under different economic policies, as well as requirements to achieve economic happiness in developing countries.
