Following on from the success of the 2008 summit we are once again, in partnerships with the Natural History Museum, holding an International Student Summit in 2009. The theme is Darwin and Evolutionary Science and this reflects the influential legacy and far-reaching scope of Charles Darwin’s theories and work.
The student summit will take place from Tuesday 30 June to Thursday 2 July 2009, a three-day summit programme of speakers. We will again be bringing around 60 students from around the world to participate in the event. Participants should be between 16-18 years of age.
Students from several cities in Latin America applied for the International Youth Summit 2009 Competition presenting very good essays and videos.
