IPO — International Philosophy Olympiad
Write a philosophical essay in a foreign language — unusual, memorable humanities signal.
- Humanities & Social Sciences
- Law
- Who can enter
- Secondary-school students — essay written in a non-native language, via national selection
- What it costs
- Free for you: entry is through your national philosophy olympiad, and team costs are covered by the host and your national organiser.
- When it closes
- We could not confirm this year's date against the organiser's own page, so we are not showing a countdown for it. Last published: Finals in May; national selection earlier in the year.
Sending this to someone sends the four facts above, not just a name — they will see who can enter and what it costs before they decide.
