We’re a global debating community that aims to connect ideas from diverse people all over the world, simultaneously on Zoom.
It all started with a community passionate about sharing ideas at the local level, in 2018 in Mexico City, and with the onset of the global pandemic we went virtual and global.
Nowadays, every two weeks we talk about a different subject and share ideas with people from dozens of multicultural countries, at the same time, comparing our ideas and enriching our perspectives in a safe, inclusive, and respectful space that lets us learn from each other and grow together.
