Save the date: The Berlin Debating Union has announced the Berlin IV 2013. The BDU will host their first tournament after the WUDC 2013 from Friday, 21st to Sunday 23rd June in Berlin. There are few details as of now:

The motto will be „Alternative Freedom“. Sarah von Kaminietz, the Convenor explains: „We strongly feel that debating is one of the most rewarding pastimes we know. However – debating alone is not enough. How exactly does what we say change our lives? How do the debates we have alter our decision-making processes? We hope to explore these questions from June 21st to June 23rd with you!“

Debates will be in English, BP style. Team Cap will be between 40 and 60. There will be 5 preliminary rounds, semi-finals and a final. The Berlin Debating Union is proud to welcome all kinds of different teams and judges in Berlin.

„It is not about luxury – it is about freestyle. Having fun sipping drinks by the Spree, eating ice cream and having a barbecue.
Open airs. Exhibitions. Club culture. Excited? So are we.“ says Sarah von Kaminietz.
