Will you match their experience?. Then there is the most consistent institution in attending and organisizing and attending the bi weekly trainings; St. Paul’s University-Limuru Campus; will they spring a surprise this year?
The theme this year is “Youth Engagement in Public Affairs”
Since January, we have been doing fortnight debate trainings from various universities on a rotational basis and we have entered the crux of the trainings now. It is not yet late for you to be part of this championship. Soon registration of teams will start. But before then, you can register for training by emailing kndebatecouncil@gmail.com and we will add you into our database, we will send you training manual and you will start receiving our training invites every fortnight.
The next training is slated for 11th May 2013 at the Kenyatta University-City Campus. More details will be remitted soon. Be part of the Debate championship and help in “Articulating a Better Kenya” in accordance to the KNDC motto.
