Call for Trainers : 1st IDEA Asia Youth Forum : 11th to 27th May 2012 : Thailand‏

Greetings everyone,

I'm sharing this message on behalf of IDEA (International Debate Education
Association).

IDEA is proud to announce the first ever Asia Youth Forum. Modeled after
the IDEA Youth Forum (now in its 18th year) the Asia Youth Forum aims to
bring together the most enthusiastic students and teachers, to learn debate
skills and content around a specific theme. We are looking to build a team
of regional trainers for this event, and if you are interested, please
apply! The format used will be Karl Popper but capable trainers from other
formats are encouraged to apply.

The details of the forum

- Theme : Crossing Borders : Migration in Asia
- Dates : 11th to 27th of May 2012
- Location : Bangkok, Thailand
- Trainer Application Deadline : 21st February 2012
- Target audience : High school students from all over Asia
- Trainer application process, criteria, expectations and benefits are
detailed in the Call for Trainers and Application form (attached with this
email and available on http://www.idebate.org/asiayouthforum)

We realize that the dates do clash with the UADC tournament. Unfortunately
these dates were the most optimum for the high school debaters and
educators that form the core of the Asia Youth Forum. We realize that some
people who may be interested in training at the Youth Forum may wish to
also attend the UADC and for this reason we are doing our best to
accommodate those schedules by making necessary allowances. If you need to
leave earlier to attend the UADC, indicate so on the Trainer Application
form.

For questions or comments, email cnasuwan@idebate.org or loganimal@gmail.com.
More details are also available on our website at

The registration process for teams will open soon and you'll be getting
another message when that happens =]

Cheers
Logan
Curriculum Director
IDEA Asia Youth Forum
