Dive into a world where knowledge comes to life, theories are tested, and young minds are inspired. The Canada-Wide Science Fair (CWSF) is more than just a STEM project competition – it’s a celebration of curiosity, innovation, and the next generation of Canadian scientists.
The Canada-Wide Science Fair (CWSF) is the country’s largest annual youth science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) event, bringing together top young scientists and their projects, selected by our national network of over 100 regional STEM fairs in every province and territory.
This is one of the most important annual events in Canada, bringing together thousands of kids interested and engaged in STEM.
