DebaTable

DebaTable is an event format that aims to gather five to ten representatives from different sectors, political orientations and backgrounds to a personal discussion on current hot topics. In the confidential and informal atmosphere of a common dinner (Chatham House rules), bridges can be built and visions that go beyond the politics of the day can be created. From the starter to the dessert, fundamental questions as well as concrete recommendations for action are discussed. The event lasts about three hours. Thematic inputs by a research fellow from an international Think Tank as well as moderation by a member of foraus ensure a constructive and focused debate.
