Bringing Science Quiz Bowl to Liberia | I-HELP Liberia | TEDxHunterCCS

Travel to Liberia with four HCHS Students and find out how a game revealed a thirst for education.

The I-HELP Liberia project is a national organization, started at Hunter College High School by a group of students in the late 1990s, with the aim of helping people in Liberia. The I-HELP organization is committed to improving learning opportunities for Liberian teachers and students who crave knowledge but don’t have the resources to pursue it. As students interested in science ourselves, we see science education as a solution for some of the existing problems in Liberia today.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
