We are providing sponsorship opportunities that will enable the Ethics Olympiads to flourish and grow in the future. Sponsorship can also offer enormous benefits to sponsors.
The Ethics Olympiad seeks to instil the epistemic virtues characterised by the spirit of open questioning. Students learn how to think – and how to think well – not what to think. In the lead up and at the events students develop the interpersonal skills and virtues needed for civic participation in rational discussion and argument.
The Ethics Olympiad already has an extensive network of participating schools and universities throughout Australasia. This means that we have annual exposure to over 3,500 students throughout Australasia.
Currently 50 Ethics Olympiads are being run annually in the following regions, NSW, Victoria, South Australia, Queensland, Western Australia, Tasmania, ACT, NT, North Island NZ, South Island NZ, Singapore, Hong Kong, India and Canada. Your sponsorship can be targeted in one of these regions if necessary. We also provide Ethics Olympiads for Junior School students, Middle School students, High School students or tertiary students. Sponsorship can also target one of these areas if required.
We are aware that the students we are dealing with would be ideal candidates for tertiary academic humanities programs and we think that some/ perhaps many would be interested in applying to pursue study at your institution at the end of their schooling if they are made aware of the opportunities available at your institution. We are also aware of the fact that some individuals and businesses, hopefully many will be keen to promote a formal link with an organisation that develops ethical thinking in young people.
