Department of Philosophy, University of Patras, supported by CHS Greece and the Panhellenic Association of Philologists, under the aegis of the Greek Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs

Open to:

All

Language:

Greek

Synopsis:

Following the first phase of the contest that takes place in various places around Greece, its final round is organized by the University of Patras, and this year will be held virtually (the detailed two-day program is available online in Greek). Out of hundreds of participating senior high school students, the best ones qualify in this final round. This year's competition is special because the ten selected winners will represent Greece in the International Philosophy Olympiad (IPO) that will take place in our country in mid-May. CHS Greece played an important role in the establishment of the contest in 2012, and continues to support it every year, offering, among others, book prizes to the winners and one scholarship for participation in the CHS Harvard High School Summer Program.
