Metro Baguio is home to schools and institutions with debaters, coaches, and communities that have helped shape the local debate scene. Over the years, people have trained together, competed against one another, and found connections through the activity.

And now, the founding MBDU Executive Board takes on the work of carrying this forward.

We have plans for the year ahead, and weโ€™re excited to see what comes next. More than anything, we want to help create a debate community that people can return to, contribute to, and grow with.

There is a lot ahead of us, and weโ€™re ready to continue what has already been started!
