Global Youth Debates 2018 - TIMELINE

Global Youth Debates runs across the calendar year with two possible semesters to join. 1) February-June and 2) September-December. Each semester has a new program. Each semester builds skills in sharing research online as well as debating. Provision is made in the timeline for schools across the world to participate fully in one or more semesters. Schools are encouraged to join for a whole year to enhance their school debating programs and to build from 'debate into action'.

Organisers of Global Youth Debates ask interested schools to read the school's information and contact organisers with any questions.
