Words of a Volunteer

Debating is, without debate, one of the most trusted ways to develop one's ability not only to defend anything properly but to communicate, organize or, for example, respond quickly and appropriately.

As a volunteer of this tournament, I didn't really have the opportunity to debate. Come to think of it, I could debate the dishwashing or allocating the debating rooms with the organizers and the other volunteers. Still, I enjoyed the preparation of the rooms and also a role of the timekeeper that I experienced for the first time. Even though I couldn't participate in debating, I met several debaters from all over the world and made new friends. It was really exciting. Briefly, I fully enjoyed being a part of this event.
