We are excited to welcome volunteers to be part of the International Greenwich Olympiad (IGO)—a prestigious global competition hosted annually in the UK. IGO celebrates innovation, creativity, and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, bringing together students aged 10 to 18 from across the world.
Following the success of IGO 2024, which saw 449 students from 134 schools across 48 countries, we are now preparing for an even more dynamic and inspiring event in 2025—and we need your help!
We're looking for passionate and enthusiastic volunteers to support us in the following areas:
Tour Guiding: Help our international guests navigate the event venues and enjoy their IGO experience to the fullest.
Marketing Support: Assist with promotion, social media, and general outreach to help spread the word about IGO and its global impact.
Photography & Videography: Capture the energy, creativity, and special moments of the event to support our media and marketing efforts.
Volunteering at IGO is a great opportunity to meet inspiring young innovators from around the world, gain valuable experience, and be part of an event that makes a difference.
