Debate Innovation's triumph: empowering Ghana's youth through debate

Coverage of our growing programme of school debates, and the students who have come through it.
Debate Innovation has trained and mentored hundreds of students, supported debate programmes across schools, and created platforms where young voices are heard, respected, and empowered.
Our programme covers a wide range of topics — politics, social issues, economics, and more — and is open and accessible to all. Recent motions have asked students to weigh Ghana's response to youth drug addiction and the case for remaining in ECOWAS.
The goal is not to produce debaters. It is to produce young people who can research a position, listen to an opposing one, and disagree without contempt.
