Experience the Owlypia spirit in your city/country!
Owlypia Locals are exciting two-day events held in various cities/countries around the world in partnership with the host institutions. They form the basis of growth, progress and merit, and allow students to participate in and experience the spirit of Owlypia in their own countries. You can join and experience an Owlypia Local in your city/country as a team of three students and also get ready for the Owlypia Globals.
Students take four Owlypia Challenges throughout a two-day event. Through Owlypia Intellectuals’ Week students are encouraged to challenge their limits intellectually and given the power to tailor their learning experiences in ways that best suit their needs.
