WorldQuest is an international quiz game played in teams of eight. Revenue from this event supports MIC’s popular International Classroom Connection (ICC) program. 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.
