The Democracy Debate Corner

Democracy as a way of life material: - Here are questions from the MS Uganda Debate Cards which are meant to stimulate debate in small or big groups.

These are selected for July 2007.  (Remember there is no right or wrong answer while debating in groups)

Family
“You can not control children well without beating them”

Do you agree or disagree? Why?


School
Your children’s favourite teacher has been transferred without any reason.

Who will you talk to and how will you do it?


Community
Your boss wants to have sex with you, which you do not want. If you do not obey, he will fire you.

What will you do?

Organisations
In your organisation presentation of accountabilities and budget management are not done regularly.

Why is that a problem and what will you suggest to solve the problem?

Local Government
The government gives a monthly grant to the health unit, but the services are poor. The health centre in town is not well equipped, but some of the workers from the health centre have their own well functioning clinics in town

What will you do?
