The Arctic Race4Good (Online) DATE 28 October 2022 - 24 November 2022 HOST Race4Good CONTACT Linda Cruse: theraceteam@lindacruse.com
12 teams took part in this first Arctic Race4Good. FOBISIA were delighted that six of the twelve teams came from FOBISIA Member Schools. This 6 week race showed students exactly what it meant to live within the Arctic Circle: an extreme, isolated, glacial location that is also abundantly rich in wildlife, culture, history and heritage and tasked them with solving specific problems. The teams were whittled down to four finalists with the judges finally choosing joint winners, including one of our Member Schools! Congratulations to both winners:
Prince of Wales Island International School, Penang Malaysia (FOBISIA Member School)
Tamagawa Academy and University, Japan
You can watch what happened when some of the students from Tamagawa visited the Arctic to implement projects that had been developed by the winning teams: Arctic R4G Video
