Want to learn more?
At Stockholm Debate Society, we help students and educators unlock those skills: in the classroom, in competition, and beyond.
Whether you're a teacher looking to start a debate club or a student curious about getting involved, you're in the right place.
Debating cultivates critical thinking, respectful disagreement, and persuasive communication — all essential 21st-century skills. But teaching it can be intimidating if you haven’t debated yourself.
That’s where we come in.
We offer:
Training and support to help you run a debate club, lead debate sessions, or integrate debating into your teaching
Workshops for students, run by experienced debaters and trainers
Opportunities to connect with other teachers across Sweden working with debate
Advice on how to participate in or host local, national, or international debate events

We'll help you take the first step — whether it's running your first session or sending your students to a tournament.
Want to improve your public speaking?
Love arguing your case and learning how to win people over with ideas, not just volume?
Or maybe you're just curious what debating is really about?
We’ve got you covered.
You can:
Join a local debate club or help start one at your school
Participate in workshops, tournaments, and debate camps
Meet students from across Sweden and Europe who love to think, argue, and learn — just like you
→ Email us at info@stockholmdebate.se
Let us know where you're based and what you're looking for — we'll connect you with the right people or help you get started.
Most of the students and teachers we work with start with zero debating experience.
We provide simple, friendly materials, step-by-step guidance, and a welcoming community.
We believe debating should be:
Fun and inclusive
Rooted in mutual respect and curiosity
A tool for both personal growth and democratic engagement
If you’re not sure whether debate is right for you or your school — write to us.
We're happy to answer questions, brainstorm with you, or even run a one-time trial workshop.
