State Acts of the Czech Parliament
Agora CE: Let us invite you to dynamic student debates on current social and political topics
On Monday 18 June, final debating duels will take place in the State Acts of the Czech Parliament among six student teams who won regional rounds of the debating competition Student Agora.
The aim of Student Agora is to encourage students' interest in public space and to teach them to critically think about current social topics. The aim is successfully achieved through a specific format of the debates: students draw lots just before the debate to know whether they will defend or deny a given statement, e.g. "Completion of construction of the Temelin nuclear power plant should be abandonned". Therefore, they must prepare arguments both for and against the statement.
Student Agora has been organized by Agora CE, a public profit institution, since 2004. From its start, Student Agora supported over 4,500 students and helped them to develop key skills: work with information, formulate one's opinion and present it in public.
If you are interested in the final round of Student Agora 2012, held under the auspices of the chairwoman of the Chamber of Deputies Ms. Miroslava Němcová, please contact:
