I-SWEEEP 2012 (International Sustainable World Energy Engineering Environment Project Olympiad)

I-SWEEEP promotes engineering inventions and energy efficiency/management discoveries, which will nurture environmentally-friendly technology concepts in secondary education. I-SWEEEP gives secondary-school students the opportunity to position themselves to be the pre-imminent scientists and engineers of the future. It will be these individuals who have a greater understanding of global issues and the importance of technology in achieving global sustainability that will be at the forefront of environmental research and development.

The I-SWEEEP Awards are valued at nearly $350,000 in scholarships, monetary prizes, tuition grants, and scientific internships.

Youth Science Canada is the official I-SWEEEP partner organization for Canada and selects three projects from Canada-Wide Science Fair and Team Canada participants.
