Description
Every semester, CASAR AUC holds miscellaneous student debates discussing the hot controversial topics in the US, Egypt and from around the world in hopes of raising awareness about these topics & broadening the perspectives of our students as they learn to engage in fruitful discussions as they share different opinion on the topic being deliberated.
At this CASAR Student Discussion event #4 in celebration of International Women's Day, an introduction was given about the historical context for enacting laws on abortion in Egypt & the US, then we watched a brief video where men in the US answered this very question before opening the floor to the attending audience to speak their minds as they answered the question of the debate: 'Should men be allowed to vote on abortion legislation?' The winning student with the best argument will get the following:
- A certificate of appreciation from CASAR
- A special feature on the CASAR website, FB & IG accounts
- An honorary special feature on the 'Speaker of the month' board at the center
The debate was moderated by Dr.Mark Deets CASAR and Yasmeen El-Ghazaly, CASAR Assistant to Director and Adjunct Faculty.
The winner of this debate was Yasmine Rizk - This debate honored International women’s day.
