Topical Talk Festivals are global discussions between schools and leading topic experts on the biggest news stories and issues of our time: from socio-political topics like racism and equity to sustainability and the "climate crisis". Each Festival is packed with inspiring activities, online events and awards for thoughtful conversations and ideas. They are organised by the Econonomist Foundation in partnership with the British Council.
This year's festival will take place between 22 January and 28 March 2024.
The Festival is suitable for students aged 10-16 with B2 level English or above. There are five sponsored places available for government-funded schools in France. Please register your interest before 1st December.
