Our approach

An argument you can follow.

Put a clear question on the table. Give both sides time to make a case, ask questions, and respond. Then talk about what held up and what changed your mind.

Hosts guide the format. You can watch, speak or judge, then use feedback to prepare for the next round.

What makes a good debate.

  1. Give a reason

    A claim becomes useful when someone can examine what supports it. Bring an example, explain the connection, and make room for questions.

  2. Answer the real point

    Listen closely enough to describe the other side fairly. A good reply deals with their strongest argument, even when it makes your case harder.

  3. Leave room for a reply

    Challenge ideas with care for the people making them. Explain a disagreement, acknowledge a fair point, and give feedback someone can use.

We want debate to be something adults actually do. The featured debates show how good it can be. The clubs and online rooms give you a place to try it, and to keep getting better.
