World Affairs Conference
North America's largest and Canada's oldest annual student-run current events conference.
WAC has reached
10k+ students ・ 80+ schools ・ 35+ countriesSince 1983, WAC has been a place for high school students to listen, learn, and discuss a variety of topics ranging from STEM, education, social justice, sustainability and diversity & inclusion. Through keynote speakers, plenary panels, as well as interactive sessions such as networking with the speakers themselves, students have the opportunity to hear directly from world renowned leaders as well as discuss ideas with their peers.
Led by a team of students from Upper Canada College and Branksome Hall, through many months of hard work WAC each year brings together an extraordinary roster of speakers to share their perspective on current topics affecting our society.
In the end, WAC is more than just a conference; it's a space where innovative thinkers get to come together and engage in discussions with like minded individuals.
