The ClimateScience (CS) Olympiad is a global competition engaging youth to find solutions to some of the most challenging climate issues and empowering them to be the climate leaders/innovators of tomorrow. 2021 was the first year the Olympiad was conducted to engage thousands of students from across the globe. We aimed for 10,000 participants and reached more than 12,400 from 149 countries.

The award ceremony of ClimateScience Olympiad 2021 was conducted at the UN’s Climate Summit (COP26) in Glasgow, UK on Tuesday, 9th of November 2021, with speakers including Dr. Jane Goodall and Renate Christ (fmr. Director of the IPCC).

WORTH

  • The top 500, 100, and top 10 participants get a digital Bronze, Silver and Gold medal, respectively. In addition, they provide $15,000 of prize money for the top 10 teams, divided as follows:
    • #1 wins $5,000
    • #2 wins $3,000
    • #3 wins $2,000
    • #4-6 win $1,000
    • #7-10 win $500
  • In 2021, the top 3 participants got a speaking slot at the UN’s Climate Summit. We hope to again give the top participants such an opportunity in 2022.
  • The questions of the CS Olympiad put students in the shoes of leaders, make them research about a particular issue in depth. Working on such problems enhances students’ research, analysis, problem solving and articulation abilities.
  • Apart from that participants get to be part of a global community and meet like-minded people in a healthy competitive environment.
