The Interstate Oratorical Association (IOA) is an organization that focuses on promoting oratory and speech competitions among students, primarily at the high school level. Founded in the early 20th century, the IOA aims to foster public speaking skills, critical thinking, and self-expression among young people. The association organizes various oratorical contests where students prepare and present speeches on a predetermined topic. These events encourage participants to research their topics thoroughly, develop persuasive arguments, and enhance their presentation skills.
