The Bickel & Brewer Foundation will award each non-advancing school $100. This cash prize recognizes each school’s outstanding achievement and can be used in support of the debate program.

IPPF is the only contest that gives high school students from across the globe the opportunity to participate in written and oral debates on issues of public policy. Schools can earn cash prizes through the program, with the top eight schools winning an all-expense-paid trip to New York City for the quarterfinal through final rounds.

Best of luck to the 16 advancing teams!
