Our Innovation & Research Centers

This project aims to spread the iiDebate vision further to access a larger segment of youth across Tunisia. Therefore, the Innovation and Research Centers (IRCs) have been created. They are iiDebate chapters based in High schools, Universities and Youth Centers. IRCs act as the debate clubs of their respective institution and provide trainings on Debating, communication skills, Team management and project management. They also have the duty of organizing iiDebate-aligned social events and projects (café talks, etc.) targeting youth aged from 15 to 29 in their local communities.

Some Innovation & Research Centers projects

Model of the Tunisian Constitutional Court - IIDebate FSJPST

It is a simulation of the Tunisian constitutional court where two teams of lawyers must present two different perspectives on the implementation of a law. Judges then must make a clear written decision on the implementation of the law according to the debate. The objective of the project was to form youth to debating techniques, initiate them to diplomacy and raise awareness about the national challenges. The project also aimed to show the importance of the constitutional court which is still not functional in Tunisia due to political issues.

During this session, attendees were informed about the application procedures and deadlines and they had the chance to listen to other students who have been abroad.
