Shiv Nadar School, Faridabad Shines at the Ethics Olympiad 2025

The Ethics Olympiad is known for building essential skills in young learners - analytical reasoning, collaborative problem-solving, and thoughtful communication. Students engage with complex and often sensitive ethical dilemmas while upholding the principles of respect, clarity, and constructive dialogue. Though the issues discussed are serious, the experience remains enriching and enjoyable as participants interact with peers from around the globe.

This global competition draws nearly 300 schools worldwide and is divided into regional zones. In our zone—which included 23 teams from Western Australia, India, and Singapore, our students delivered an outstanding performance.

We proudly fielded two teams this year:

Team 1

Event Format

The competition is conducted online via Zoom, with each school registering 5–10 participants. Over the course of the day, teams take part in four rounds of ethical case discussions. They are evaluated on criteria that recognise well-reasoned arguments, clear communication, teamwork, and respectful engagement.

Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals are awarded at the end of each regional event. Gold and Silver winners advance to represent their zone at the International Ethics Olympiad.
