We are Camila González and Valerie Cifuentes, economics journalists and active founders of Economía para la pipol. We have worked for more than 8 years in media such as El Tiempo, Portafolio, Forbes, La República, Bloomberg Línea and La Silla Vacía. Now, from Economía para la pipol, we work to bring economics and finance to more people in a simple (and entertaining) language.
We were born in the midst of the 2021 national strike in Colombia. At the time, millions of people took to the streets to protest against the tax reform and we saw disinformation everywhere.
That's when the idea came up to bring the economic and financial debate down to a language that everyone could understand, without losing rigorousness. One of us posed a question on Twitter (now X) and that brought us together to find solutions to this problem.
The answer to that concern was Economics for the pipol.
