Doha: QatarDebate, a member of Qatar Foundation, has succeeded over the recent years in entering agreements with some of the largest American universities, including the University of Chicago, Harvard, Utah, Western Kentucky, Illinois, and others, to implement specific programs for debates in the Arabic language with the aim of promoting the language in an unconventional way.
As part of the celebration of the Qatar-USA Year of Culture 2021, a delegation from QatarDebate recently visited the United States to inaugurate the QatarDebate Majlis at Western Kentucky University. During this visit, the delegation also held the second edition of the Arabic Debate Capacity Building Program, and the second debate curriculum forum.
