Each year, the Foreign Policy Association (FPA) hosts the WorldQuest New York competition, inviting schools and students from high schools from the New York City area high schools.

A flagship program of the World Affairs Councils of America, WorldQuest is an intensive team competition designed to challenge its players on their knowledge of international affairs, geography, culture, and history. The game pits each team of four against one another as they answer multiple-choice questions related to previously selected categories.
