Initiative to Support College Debate Programs Around the World
Deadline: Ongoing

The Open Society Foundations has launched Global Debates, a $20 million funding initiative to strengthen debate programs at colleges and universities around the world.

OSF will provide up to three years of funding to colleges, universities, and other educational institutions to integrate debate across disciplines. The International Debate Education Association will implement the programs and help OSF identify and provide support to grantees.

Students, faculty, or staff may apply for a maximum of $50,000 to fund the creation of debate clubs or societies where none currently exist, provide student debate training or instruction, host intra-mural debate tournaments and public debates, and/or travel to public debates and debate tournaments.

For each program area, concept papers/full proposals will be reviewed on a rolling basis until funding has been exhausted. Proposals for debate events should be submitted at least two months before the event.
