Should Zoos be Banned? Student Speech Saheb

Summer camp 2022

A bit about Debate and Discussions-

Debate and Discussions focuses on 2 main parts of society
1. Education for all
2. Mental Well-being

Debate and Discussions is an initiative that helps learners with a holistic approach to development. Our motto is Open Skies. We focus on public speaking, English, descriptive and imaginative writing through various engaging activities, games, ice-breakers; and expand our knowledge by discussing quotes from a range of personalities.
This initiative started in July 2020, when the world was at a stop, but we weren't. Our program uses the online platforms Zoom and Google Meets. This initiative is free of charge, and our vision is to enable skill sharing by elder kids to younger kids to help them grow into valuable members of our community.

Our Vision-
Open Skies
The motto we stand by, the vision we perceive, the mission we strive for is Open Skies - for us, Debate and Discussions is not just a platform, it’s a community of learners willing to make the world a better place. Our duty as moderators has always been to provide each learner with the right resources for them to be able to fly. In our opinion, it is our responsibility to kickstart the wings on every child’s back and give them the motivation they deserve. We as moderators are constantly creating content, reviewing work and responding to feedback to make sure that no learner falls behind or does not get the opportunity to fly.
If you would like to help this cause grow bigger and better - please like, share and comment. If you are aware of learners who need that kickstart, please get in contact with us because the world starts and ends with you! And lastly, remember - a learner is not an age- it’s a mindset!
