The second League of Universities Debates in English witnessed a strong competition between the 16 participating teams belonging to 7 universities, namely “Qatar University – Carnegie Mellon – College of the North Atlantic – Hamad bin Khalifa – North Western – Weill Cornell Medicine – Georgetown”. The College of the North Atlantic hosted the second round of competitions organized by QatarDebate – a member of Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development- with the participation of 16 arbitrators.
The three issues that the participating teams debated revolved around: “This council considers that the sports team federations should set an upper limit for the club’s annual spending.”
