Raffles Economics and Current Affairs Society

The Raffles Economics & Current Affairs Society (RECAS) is a small and close-knit community with a strong sense of camaraderie. Every week, selected members share about a topic they are interested in through presentations or interesting video clips. Members can also look forward to webinars with professionals, field trips (for example, to the URA, GIC and Parliament House) and even creating our very own club newsletter. Here at RECAS, we provide a safe learning environment for you to voice your views and ask questions without the fear of being disparaged. Being a student-directed CCA, we enjoy a rare degree of autonomy which allows our members to freely explore what they are interested in. Regardless of whether you have an interest in reading more about economics or world affairs, we’ve got you covered!
