Mindwise Debate

This debate series is organized in collaboration with Mindwise. With this debate series we aspire to build a platform that will facilitate discussions on relevant topics, encouraging risky and informed dialogue, and creating a sense of community that will transcend disciplinary and structural boundaries. In the first part of the debate, the two teams will bring arguments for and against the proposal and challenge each other’s position; in the second part of the debate, audience members are invited to participate in the discussion to further explore the topic and contribute their ideas
