La Course destination monde is a Canadian reality competition television series, which aired on Télévision de Radio-Canada from 1988 to 1999. The series was a filmmaking competition which sent young emerging filmmakers from Quebec around the world to make short films about their destinations, with prizes awarded at the conclusion of each season to the best films coming out of the competition.

From the fourth season onward, the show was titled La Course destination monde, and permitted filmmakers to travel to anywhere in the world.
