International Competitions

Australia's teams to the National Geographic World Championship, the International Geography Olympiad and the Asia-Pacific Regional Geography Olympiad are chosen from students who excel in our Competition – the first via the Final for under 16s; the latter two from students 16 and over via Geography's Big Week Out. So how's that for major prizes – all expenses paid overseas trips to have the time of your life with a group of like-minded young people from all over the world. The 2009 National Geographic World Championship was held in Mexico City, 11-16 July. The 2008 International Geography Olympiad was held in Tunisia. The 2010 Olympiad will be in Taipei, 29 July - 4 August. The 2009 Asia-Pacific Regional Geography Olympiad was held in Tsukuba, Japan, 1-6 August.
