The Olympiad will be held at the premises of the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń. Organisers of the 10th Baltic iGeo invite the National Teams of up to 10 members – 8 student participants and 2 team leaders (adults, National Team accompanying personnel).
As always the Baltic iGeo competition contains three elements: a written response test, a multimedia test and a fieldwork test. The official language of the Baltic iGeo is English.
