The competition is structured in three stages – Regional Round, Global Round, and the Final Round. During the two-day Regional Round, young minds had the opportunity to explore diverse ideas, collaborate with peers, and push their intellectual and creative abilities. Teams that have qualified in the Regional Round will soon be invited to the Global Round, where they will have the opportunity to advance to the prestigious Tournament of Champions, hosted by Yale University, USA.
The World Scholar’s Cup is a global academic competition that differentiates itself by providing a new approach to learning through the integration of team debates, collaborative writing, multiple-choice tests, and a multimedia quiz. The theme of this year’s edition was “Reigniting the Future,” aiming to inspire a global community of future scholars and leaders, by initiating students in the process of critical thinking and analysis, encouraging them not only to focus on their existing skills and areas of strength but to also discover and practice other new ones.
“The World Scholar’s Cup is more than a competition in academics; it’s a festival that celebrates learning and camaraderie and encourages students to explore various ideas and test their limits of intellectual and creative capabilities. We take pride in providing a platform that doesn’t just encourage excellence in academics but also fosters teamwork, critical thinking, and creativity. Events like this develop better global citizens who will find themselves well-equipped to lead and innovate.” said Ms. Niru Agarwal, Managing Trustee, Greenwood High International School
