Minnesota International Center - A World Affairs Council



 

About WorldQuest

WorldQuest is an international quiz game played in teams of eight. WorldQuest is a trademarked flagship program of the World Affairs Councils of America, and is played by World Affairs Councils throughout the country.

Who Can Play?

This event is open to the public; anyone who knows about or wants to learn about world affairs and international issues is welcome to recruit a team of 8 players and give it a try.  Teams have been organized by schools, corporations, nonprofits, groups of friends and families.  It’s not about what you know, but what your team knows.
