Une grande première pour Strathclyde : the Speak Up debate competition

Activity: Talk or presentation typesOral presentation

Description

While it is common for universities to see their debate clubs compete in what is a long standing British tradition, doing so in French is a rarer feat but this is exactly what happened in November 2017 between Glasgow University and Strathclyde. The Alliance Française organised this public event which saw students eloquently discuss free speech before a screening of a prize winning French documentary. During this presentation, learn more about the preparation that led to the special night, the challenges such an event presented and what the students gained from the experience.
