At The Modus Ponens Institute, we run world-class ethics and debate competitions for students aged 7 to 18. Our programs train students to think clearly while tackling some of the most pressing moral questions of our time.
Whether you're joining from a school in London, a private academy in Nairobi, or a homeschooling group in New York, MPI events offer rigorous challenges, expert feedback, and a global community of young thinkers.
We run three international circuits:
-
Ethics Olympiads: School-based teams engage in collaborative ethical dialogue. Top teams qualify for the International Ethics Olympiad Final in Australia.
-
TKEthics Invitationals: Teams explore justice, fairness, and tech ethics — no school affiliation required.
-
Global AI Debates: Students submit essays and speeches on AI and society, judged by leaders from OpenAI, MIT, and UC Berkeley.
