Debate For All is a pioneering social venture based in Korea, dedicated to advancing debate education in English, Korean, and Vietnamese while establishing vibrant debate platforms across Asia. Our vision is to create a world where every individual has equitable access to high-quality education, empowering them to pursue their aspirations, express their unique voices, and navigate their paths with independence and confidence.
At Debate For All, we envision a society where everyone, regardless of socioeconomic background, can become empowered democratic citizens with essential 21st-century skills. We believe in the power of debate as an educational tool that encourages individuals to voice their perspectives, think critically, and grow academically and professionally.
We're deeply committed to bridging the achievement gaps in Korea and Vietnam. Socioeconomically disadvantaged students often face significant academic challenges, perpetuating widening disparities year after year. Our mission is to address this inequality by equipping students with the skills necessary to succeed in the modern world: critical thinking, problem-solving, collaboration, communication, and creativity.
We organize engaging and competitive debate leagues and tournaments, offer high-quality training conducted by renowned coaches to both students and teachers, and provide free peer-to-peer mentoring to underserved students. By working with city governments, public education bodies, universities, schools, and various public and private organizations, we aim to create a more inclusive and equitable educational landscape where every individual has the opportunity to thrive and succeed.
Change begins in the classroom. We believe teachers can empower and encourage students to develop their own views and voices. Our programs cater to educators, offering a spectrum of options from a condensed 1-day, 8-hour course to an immersive 12-week, 36-hour program. These courses are designed to equip teachers with the skills to map out and deliver public speaking and debating modules in both Korean and English.
We believe debating is an essential skill that should be readily available to all individuals. In a landscape where private coaching costs are escalating annually, we provide cost-effective programs without a compromise in quality. We also train and deploy coaches to run debate programs in schools and institutions nationwide, ensuring widespread access to valuable debating opportunities.
Whether you're a small group of 15 individuals or located 300 kilometers away from Seoul, our priority is to provide a tailored program that best serves the needs and goals of the group. From a 1-day workshop for over 100 university students to a 15-hour program for public servants or professionals, we are committed to fulfilling your requirements with precision and excellence.
Debating is a life skill, an art, but also a sport. We host and organize debate tournaments across Korea and Vietnam that bring together top-notch speakers and adjudicators to engage in a spectrum of topics ranging from education policies to social movements.
In today's interconnected and globalized business environment, effective communication is key to achieving success. We offer tailored English/Korean courses in public speaking, presentation, debate, and negotiation for business leaders. Our programs are customized to align with the specific requirements of each company and industry, ensuring targeted skill enhancement and professional growth.
