NSS Global Space Debates Program
For High School
Expand Your Horizons with NSS Global Space Debates!
The NSS Global Space Debates (formerly spUN Debates) offer international students the prestigious opportunity to form a global team to debate space policy with an eye on Universalization – finding solutions, through worldwide collaboration and cooperation, for the space industry and our Earth.
Debates began in 2017. The High School Program is 100% virtual, as teams of four debaters (ages 14–18) come together from different parts of the world to learn to work together, appreciate different perspectives, cultures, and languages, while developing the art of debating important space policy issues.
