ISRAELI DEBATE TEAM WINS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS FOR THIRD TIME
An Israeli debate team has won the World Universities Debate Championship for the third time. The contest took place in Bangkok, Thailand.
The winning duo, Hadar Goldberg and Maya Saveliev of the Open University Debate Team, made history as the first Israeli team of women to win the competition. They defeated 750 contestants from around the world in the English Second Language (ESL) category.
The competition took place throughout the last week of 2019. It had a varied array of subjects for the nine debate rounds that the team went through, including gender, democracy, ethics, geopolitics and law.
