Ethics Olympiads
An Ethics Olympiad is a team-based academic competition where students analyze real-world moral dilemmas and defend their views in live, moderated discussions.
Unlike traditional debate, the goal isn’t to “win” an argument — it’s to demonstrate clarity of thought, respectful dialogue, and philosophical insight.
MPI’s Olympiads are internationally recognized, featuring rigorous case sets, expert judging, and a focus on ethical reasoning across cultures and disciplines.
Students learn to think deeply, speak thoughtfully, and engage others with integrity — skills that last far beyond the tournament.
