Jefferson Junior Debate

Jefferson Junior Debate

The Jefferson Junior Debate, held at the iLead campus, was an enriching experiencing for all its participants. Representing Modern High School International, Yashna Jalan and Vivaan Ghosal (the two speakers) alongside Utkarsh Bajoria (the researcher) secured first place, debating on the motion – “Will joint space exploration initiatives between NASA and ISRO strengthen global innovation?” A total of 14 schools participated, each school represented by a team of three members.

Each speaker was allotted 3 minutes of speaking time, with two rounds of debate with Garden High School and Delhi Public School Ruby Park securing second place and third place respectively. This was a great experience for all the students, where we got to interact with new debaters and learn more about international diplomacy.
