COMPETITION CALENDAR

🌐 What if your students imagined a more connected future... but in a different way?

The digital world has become a place for expression, creation, and connection—but also for doubt, overload, and ecological impact. How can we encourage digital citizenship? What role can schools play in (re)inventing more sustainable, more human digital practices? 
With this 10th anniversary edition of the Eduki national school Competition, the Eduki Foundation is pleased to invite all students in Switzerland, accompanied by their teachers, to explore the theme: “Interconnected: human – digital – sustainable” 
... an interdisciplinary subject that can be freely combined with your curriculum, projects, or educational goals, regardless of your level or discipline.  

Give your students a new opportunity to express themselves on the major contemporary issues.

All the information can be found on our website: eduki.ch/concours

Registrations are open from September 1 to December 31, 2025 .
