Back To School Debate

Ongoing 100%

In 2007, Cameroon hosted the Pan African Universities’ Debating Championship, the largest intercollegiate debate local debate societies, as it did in Cameroon for several years. 

However, the decline of the Cameroon Debate Society, which once actively hosted British Parliamentary debates, has led to a significant drop in debate activities. Since 202o, Cameroon has struggled to organize even one debate tournament annually, with very few participants.

Motion

This House believes that integrating Debate into the National Curriculum is the key to Reviving the Debate Community in Cameroon.
