Learning Resources

One thing we have learnt through our work on the Charter for Responsible Debate is that merely agreeing to adopt some principles is not enough to change the culture of our public discussions. Doing this will require internalising principles like the ones in our charter more deeply in our daily practice. To this end, we have developed some learning resources to help people who are interested in learning more about responsible debate and how to embed this into their daily practice. 

Below you can find a series of six worksheets, accompanied by a set of short videos in which experts discuss various aspects of debate, including its history, psychology, sociology, politics, digital manifestation, and application to our daily lives. These worksheets and videos are designed for collaborative study in small groups, but you can also explore them individually. We hope that you enjoy using and sharing these resources. If you have questions or feedback, or simply want to engage in some responsible debate with us, please contact us.
