Academic WorldQuest Competition

The Academic WorldQuest Competition is an exciting global trivia competition for high school students, in teams of four, to test their international IQ.  The winning team wins an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C. to compete in the National Academic WorldQuest Competition.

Academic WorldQuest is a flagship program of the World Affairs Councils of America, a network of over 90 councils that engages more than 4,000 high school students annually across the U.S. to test their knowledge of global issues and foreign policy.
