GENIUS Speech

GENIUS Speech raises awareness and inspires action on environmental issues through persuasive speeches and talks. Students are tasked with recording a three-minute speech on the current topic and uploading it to YouTube as part of the initial application. Finalist students will deliver a three-minute speech at the fair and respond to questions from a panel of judges.

The application requires a project video, which is a three-minute or less speech uploaded to YouTube with a specific title format ("GENIUS Olympiad Speech–YEAR: Title of the project"). The YouTube link must be submitted during the application process. The speech must be in English. Video recording guidelines include clear voice and audio, speaking naturally without reading, recording the full body, and looking at the camera. All projects must be submitted in their final format. By submitting, applicants give GENIUS Olympiad rights to use their video and creative work freely.
