About International Geography Olympiad
The International Geography Olympiad (iGeo) is a yearly competition for the best 16 to 19 year old geography pupils from all over the world. Interested students chosen to represent their countries are the very best, chosen from thousands of other students who take part enthusiastically in their own National Geography Olympiads. The iGeo consists of three parts: a written test, a multimedia test and substantial fieldwork requiring observation, resulting in cartographic representation and geographical analysis. The programme also includes poster presentations by teams, cultural exchanges, and time for students to get to know other students and explore the host city.
