Founded by Anansh Prasad, an Ivy League Alumnus from Cornell University, Skillsphere strongly believes in introducing sustainable soft-skills like communication, critical and design thinking at the right age- when children are mouldable and impressionable. They have worked extensively with 450+ schools across India and the Middle East, training over 2.5 lac students over the years. Their Model UN initiatives are hence directed towards training students to excel in Model UNs through procedure and simulation training, but more importantly, to hone their skills in essential areas through activity based sessions that follow SkillSphere's 3D Model- a perfect blend of theoretical, practical and experiential learning.
About the Workshop
Debating is more than just speaking — it is the ability to think critically, communicate confidently, and defend ideas through logic, reasoning, and structured argumentation. This is a beginner-friendly 5-day program designed to help students develop public speaking confidence, analytical thinking, rebuttal skills, and persuasive communication through interactive activities and structured debate simulations.
Through engaging discussions, practical exercises, and Oxford-style debate formats, learners explore how to build arguments, analyze multiple perspectives, organize speeches, and communicate ideas effectively. The workshop focuses not only on what students say, but also on how they think, structure, and deliver their ideas with clarity and confidence.
By the end of the program, learners gain:
- a strong foundation in debating - the steps to developing essential life skills such as confidence, critical thinking, spontaneity, collaboration, and effective communication
