Greetings!

 

The KDI School of Public Policy and Management is pleased to announce the Asian Debate Institute 2008.  The ADI is now in its fifth year and since 2004 has educated hundreds of high school and university students in the art of persuasion and debate.

The workshop will be hosted on the campus on the KDI School, in Seoul, Korea from August 14-23, 2008.  We are excited that we will be able to offer faculty from around the world who collectively have over 70 years of experience in debate as students, adjudicators and professional coaches. ADI Faculty and Students represent 25 institutions from 14 nations.  The workshop will truly represent the ideal of a "global village!" 

The ADI is an intensive debate experience.  Each morning will feature two sets of lectures by our outstanding faculty.  The afternoon of each day will be spent doing critiqued practice debates, and activities to improve public speaking and critical thinking skills.  A typical day will start at 9:30 am and end at 7 pm.

Please consider joining us for 10 days of education, inspiration and community in Seoul, the vibrant capital of Dynamic Korea!
