The 2022 iGeo - Paris, France

Paris, the city of Lights, is home to living cultural, historical, educational, and scientific heritage. Being one of the most visited cities in the world, the cosmopolitan French capital arouses people’s imagination from its numerous iconic monuments (Tour Eiffel, Sacré-Coeur, Moulin Rouge, le Louvre, etc.) to its romantic image. Throughout the city, which its famous river, la Seine, runs through, one can observe both the fascinating history in the urban landscape and architecture, and the modernisation in the city in order for it to be at the forefront of the various world challenges and to welcome international events (for instance, the International Car Show in 2022, the Rugby World Cup in 2023, and the Olympic Games in 2024). From the top of Montmartre to the bottom of the catacombs, Paris has a lot to offer to all of its visitors.

The 18TH INTERNATIONAL GEOGRAPHY OLYMPIAD was held online from July 12th to 18th, 2022. It was hosted by the Local Organising Committee in Paris, France, led by Alexis Alamel.
