High School Debate League
High School Debating League 2025
The participation of the students of 4t of ESO and high school in this activity allows them to work on contents in a dynamic and participative way. In this sense, the non-verbal communication skills, the search for information, the analysis of a specific topic and, above all, the teamwork, generate an exceptional training and learning space.
Pre-registration is organized by the Xarxa Vives. Once you have confirmed your place in the local phase of the UAB, you will have to formalize your registration before January 10th by sending the documentation.
The local round at UAB follows the rules and regulations of the Xarxa Vives d'Universitats.
