Academic WorldQuest is a team competition testing students’ knowledge of global issues in many categories including cybersecurity, global economic realignment, geography, current events, U.N. Millennium Goals, and more!
The local competition on Saturday, February 7th brings together over 120 high school students from around Alaska to test their knowledge of global affairs. Over 40 local World Affairs Councils host the competition across the country. The winning team from each local competition is invited to participate in the National Competition hosted in Washington, D.C. each April.
