Partnering Us

We have worked with major local companies and organisations to create programs, competitions, and outreach events that suit the client’s needs. Some of our partners in the past include:

• We worked closely with Mediacorp to develop the Emmy-nominated TV show, The Arena, and remain involved as debate consultants.

• Ministry of Education: We have assisted MOE in the coaching of the Singapore National Debate team for the 2003 (Peru) and 2007 (South Korea) World Schools Debating Championships – both teams are the only teams to have made it to the Grand Finals.
• Schools: We have organised short training programs for teachers and students from local and international schools, and are working with NIE to develop a teacher debate-training program.

• DA(S) organised the debate component of the inaugural “Singapore Youth Mediation Week” in Aug 2009 for the Community Mediation Centre (an agency of the Ministry of Law), including selection of topics and adjudicators.

• DA(S) helped MOF create and run the Inter-School Budget Debate Challenge in 2009 and 2010. The competition is a mock parliamentary debate covering policy issues relevant to the Singapore Budget for each year. Each team represents a specific segment of society who are impacted by the motion/topic, allowing for a very unique and engaging debate experience. The format was specially customised to meet MOF’s needs.

• Google, British Council, National Kidney Fund, World Bank, Red Cross, National Library Board and many other organisations: We organise thematic debate competitions or public exhibition debates to promote their organisations message and spread awareness of an issue.
