Young Researchers Forum. Oxford Debate
Register for the event or join one of the debating teams
Time: 13:00 – 15:30
Language of the event: English
The Young Researchers’ Forum is a unique space created with young researchers in mind – a place where your voice truly matters. It is an opportunity to share insights, discuss important and current issues, while also developing public speaking skills and building new connections in the academic community.
The upcoming meeting will take the form of an Oxford debate on the topic of artificial intelligence. Participants, divided into two teams, will present arguments “for” and “against,” highlighting both the potential and the challenges associated with AI. The audience will not only have the chance to listen to both sides, but also actively engage by supporting the team whose arguments prove more convincing.
An Oxford debate is not only intellectual entertainment, but above all an excellent exercise in critical thinking, argumentation, and openness to different perspectives. If you want to take part in a fascinating discussion and see how strong arguments can change opinions – this event is for you!
