About

The first in a series of three debate tournaments to be held this autumn will involve 35 pre-selected high school students from Bender, Cahul, Ceadîr-Lunga, Comrat, Taraclia, Tiraspol and Vulcănești. Participants will debate the positive impact of increasing the number of women in politics.

The debate tournaments aim to establish academic debate as a means to promoting civic education and developing critical thinking among young people, while also building confidence among youth from both banks of Nistru/Dniester River.

This debate tournament is organized as part of a three-year project implemented jointly by the OSCE Mission to Moldova and NGONGO
non-governmental organization
Piligrim-Demo that aims to establish a mechanism for national minority youth and civil society to engage in political life and public service in Moldova.
