Ethics Olympiad Worldwide
2026
Information
The Ethics Olympiad is an international, age-divided competition that brings school and university students together to discuss real ethical case studies and build critical thinking, collaboration and communication skills. Divisions run for junior, middle and senior school levels, plus a tertiary (undergraduate) division. Events include regional rounds and an international final, and winning teams and individuals receive named prizes. The programme also offers hosting licences and membership for schools to run local Olympiads using provided resources.
Benefits
Named prizes for winners (e.g. Grand Prize, Ethics Centre Prize); medals and awards as announced for competition winners.
Eligibility
Divisions are age-graded: Junior School (Years 5–6, ages 9–12), Middle School (Years 7–9, ages 11–14), Senior School (Years 10–13, ages 15–18). The AAPAE Tertiary Ethics Olympiad invites undergraduate university students to represent their institution.
Application
Participating schools or tertiary institutions register via the online registration pages for each division; hosting licences and membership are applied for through the organiser's host-licences and membership pages.
